Temperature and Ventilation

CAUTION: Temperature -- The temperature, in which the server operates when installed

in an equipment rack, must not go below 5°C (41°F) or rise above 35°C (95°F).
Extreme fluctuations in temperature can cause a variety of problems in your
server.

CAUTION: Ventilation -- The equipment rack must provide sufficient airflow to the

front of the server to maintain proper cooling. The rack must also include
ventilation sufficient to exhaust a maximum of 1023 BTUs (British Thermal Units)
per hour for the server. The rack selected and the ventilation provided must be
suitable to the environment in which the server will be used.
