Safety Recommendations for Rack Installations

Ensure proper installation of the unit in a closed or multi-unit enclosure

by following the recommended installation as defined by the enclosure

manufacturer. Do not place the unit directly on top of other equipment

or place other equipment directly on top of the unit. If installing the

unit in a closed or multi-unit enclosure, ensure adequate airflow within

the rack so that the maximum recommended ambient temperature is

not exceeded. Ensure that the unit is properly connected to earth

ground by verifying that it is reliably grounded when mounted within

a rack. If a power strip is used, ensure that the power strip provides

adequate grounding of the attached apparatus.
When mounting the equipment in the rack, make sure mechanical

loading is even to avoid a hazardous condition, such as loading heavy

equipment in rack unevenly. The rack used should safely support the

combined weight of all the equipment it supports.
Ensure that the mains supply circuit is capable of handling the load of

the equipment. See the power label on the equipment for load

requirements (full specifications for MultiVOIP models are presented in

chapter 1 of this manual).
Maximum ambient temperature for the unit is 60 degrees Celsius (140

degrees Fahrenheit) at 20-90% non-condensing relative humidity. This

equipment should only be installed by properly qualified service

personnel. Only connect like circuits. In other words, connect SELV

(Secondary Extra Low Voltage) circuits to SELV circuits and TN

(Telecommunications Network) circuits to TN circuits.
