Rack mounting the Profile XP
The equipment for the Profile XP system installs in a standard 19-inch equipment rack.
Rack slide tracks shipped with the Profile XP system and peripheral products allow them
to slide in and out without having to remove them from the rack. If the rack does not
already have rack slides installed, or if the slides are not correctly positioned, you will
have to use those shipped with the Profile XP.
When planning the placement of equipment in your equipment rack, bear in mind the
following:
• The Profile XP requires six inches (15.25 cm) of clearance behind the rear panel
for to allow room for connectors and cable bends.
• Insure adequate air flow around the chassis to provide sufficient cooling.
(Operating ambient temperature will affect the amount of air circulation
required to keep the Profile XP within its temperature limitations.)
• Insure the rack is anchored to the floor so that it cannot tip over when the
Profile XP is extended out of the rack.
