2.2.2 Ventilation Requirements
For the RA-BM2-W6510-48V8C products, leave sufficient space in the front and at the back of the chassis (at least
20cm) for ventilation. After various cables are connected, bundle the cables or place them in the cable management
bracket to avoid blocking air inlets. Dust the device every three months to avoid blocking the ventilation openings.
2.2.3 Temperature and Humidity Requirements
To ensure the normal operation and a prolonged service life of the RA-BM2-W6510-48V8C, maintain an appropriate
temperature and humidity in the equipment room. The equipment room with too high or too low temperature and
humidity for a long period of time may damage the equipment.
In an environment with high relative humidity, the insulating material may have bad insulation or even leak
electricity. And sometimes the materials may suffer from mechanical performance change and metallic parts may
get rusted.
On the other hand, in an environment with low relative humidity, the insulating strip may dry and shrink, and static
electricity may occur easily and endanger the circuit on the device.
In an environment with high temperature, the equipment is subjected to even greater harm, as its performance
may degrade significantly and its service life may be shortened at high temperature for long that expedites the
aging process.

2.2.6 EMI Consideration
Various interference sources, from either outside or inside the device or application system, affect the system in the
conductive ways such as capacitive coupling, inductive coupling, and electromagnetic radiation. There are two types of
electromagnetic interferences: radiated interference and conducted interference, depending on the type of the
propagation path. When the energy, often RF energy, from a component arrives at a sensitive component via the space,
the energy is known as radiated interference. The interference source can be either a part of the interfered system or a
completely electrically isolated unit. Conducted interference results from the electromagnetic wire or signal cable
connection between the source and the sensor. Interference along the cable the interference is transmitted from one
unit to another. Conducted interference often affects the power supply of the device, but can be controlled by a filter.
Radiated interference may affect any signal path in the device, and is difficult to shield.
Effective measures should be taken for the power system to prevent electric grid interference.
The working ground of the routers should be properly separated and kept as far as possible from the grounding
device of the power device or the anti-lightning grounding device.
Keep the device away from high-power radio transmitter, radar transmitting station, and high-frequency
large-current device.
Measures must be taken to isolate static electricity.
2.3 Precaution for Fiber Connection
Before connecting the fibers, you should ensure that the type of optical connector and the type of fibers match the type
of the optical interface used. Moreover, you should pay attention to the Tx and Rx directions of the fiber. The Tx end of
this device should be connected to the Rx end of the peer device, and the Rx end of this device to the Tx end of the
peer device.
