Rack-Mounting Considerations
Before installing your IP/TV Server in a rack, review the following guidelines:
• Two or more people are required to install the device in a rack.
• Ensure that the room air temperature is below 95°F (35°C).
• Do not block any air vents; usually 6 inches (15 cm) of space provides proper
airflow.
• Do not extend more than one device out of the rack at the same time.
• Remove the rack doors and side panels to provide easier access during
installation.
• Connect the IP/TV Server to a properly grounded outlet.
• Do not overload the power outlet when installing multiple devices in the rack.
• Do not place any object weighing more than 110 lb (50 kg) on top of
rack-mounted devices.
Caution Use safe practices when lifting.
Warning To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you
must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The
following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:
• This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.
• When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the
top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
• If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting
or servicing the unit in the rack.
