Equipment Placement
WARNING:
Avoid personal injury and damage to this equipment. An unstable mounting
surface may cause this equipment failure.
To protect against equipment damage or injury to personnel, comply with the
following:
•Install this equipment in a restricted access location.
•Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or
other equipment (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
•Place this equipment close enough to a mains AC outlet to accommodate the
length of this equipment’s power cord.
•Route all power cords so that people cannot walk on, place objects on, or lean
objects against them. This may pinch or damage the power cords. Pay particular
attention to power cords at plugs, outlets, and the points where the power cords
exit this equipment.
•Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer,
or sold with this equipment.
•Make sure the mounting surface or rack is stable and can support the size and
weight of this equipment.
•The mounting surface or rack should be appropriately anchored according to
manufacturer’s specifications. Ensure this equipment is securely fastened to the
mounting surface or rack where necessary to protect against damage due to any
disturbance and subsequent fall.
Ventilation
This equipment has openings for ventilation to protect it from overheating. To
ensure equipment reliability and safe operation, do not block or cover any of the
ventilation openings. Install the equipment in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Rack Mounting Safety Precautions
Mechanical Loading
Make sure that the rack is placed on a stable surface. If the rack has stabilizing
devices, install these stabilizing devices before mounting any equipment in the rack.
WARNING:
Avoid personal injury and damage to this equipment. Mounting this equipment
in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not caused due to
uneven mechanical loading.

Important Safety Instructions, Continued
Reduced Airflow
When mounting this equipment in the rack, do not obstruct the cooling airflow
through the rack. Be sure to mount the blanking plates to cover unused rack space.
Additional components such as combiners and net strips should be mounted at the
back of the rack, so that the free airflow is not restricted.
CAUTION:
Installation of this equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of
airflow required for safe operation of this equipment is not compromised.
Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature
Only install this equipment in a humidity- and temperature-controlled environment
that meets the requirements given in this equipment’s technical specifications.
CAUTION:
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient
temperature. Therefore, install this equipment in an environment compatible
with the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient temperature.
Handling Precautions
When moving a cart that contains this equipment, check for any of the following
possible hazards:
WARNING:
Avoid personal injury and damage to this equipment! Move any equipment
and cart combination with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause this equipment and cart to overturn.
•Use caution when moving this equipment/cart combination to avoid injury from
tip-over.
•If the cart does not move easily, this condition may indicate obstructions or cables
that may need to be disconnected before moving this equipment to another
location.
•Avoid quick stops and starts when moving the cart.
•Check for uneven floor surfaces such as cracks or cables and cords.
