HP 1Gb/2Gb switch 16B A7340-96002 - Manual (Page 8)

2 Quick Start Guide
• The ambient air temperature near the switch must not exceed 40 degrees
Celsius. This is particularly important to verify if the switch is installed
in a closed or multi-rack assembly.
• The volume of air flow available to the switch must be at least 300 cubic
feet per minute. The air vents must not be blocked.
Follow these safety guidelines for rack-mount installation:
• The rack space must be 1U high, 19 inches wide, and 24 inches deep.
• All equipment installed in the rack should have a reliable branch circuit
ground connection. Do not rely on a connection to a branch circuit, such
as a power strip.
• The additional weight of the switch should not unbalance the rack or
exceed the rack’s weight limits.
• The rack should be mechanically secured to insure stability in the event
of an earthquake.
WARNING For safety reasons, when installing this product in an
equipment rack, you must consider rack stability against tipping. Please
refer to the Hewlett-Packard Rack System/E User's Manual provided with
the equipment rack to determine rack stability (also available in electronic
format through the HP Web site at
http://www.hp.com/racksolutions/ ). If the
necessary stability is not achieved, through the placement of additional
equipment or ballast, the equipment rack must be anchored to the building
structure before operation.
