Before you Install the C360 in a Rack

When installing C360 in a rack, ensure that the equipment is positioned such that it will not
cause the rack to become unstable or tip over.

Ensure that the combination of equipment in the rack will not cause an overload or
overcurrent condition on the power strip being used and/or the customer's branch circuit.

The C360 units weigh a maximum of 15 pounds (6.8 kg). Be careful when installing or
removing the C360 product from the rack.

If a power strip is being used in the rack, ensure that it has a reliable earth connection. If
the C360 equipment will be plugged directly into a wall outlet, ensure that there is a
reliable ground connection at the outlet.

Ensure that the internal rack ambient temperature is within the operating specification
limits of the C360.

Ventilation for the C360 is from side to side. Ensure that there is adequate space on each
side of the C360 equipment when installed in the rack to allow sufficient airflow.

Place the C360 in the rack as follows:

1. Position the brackets on the C360 as shown in
