1.3.4 Cooling
1. Overview
The RG-S6510-32CQ adopts the front-to-rear airflow. Air flows in through the ports and out through the power
module, as shown in Figure 1-5.

Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Overview

Caution
Maintain a minimum clearance of 200 mm (7.87 in.) around the equipment for air circulation.
At least three fan modules are required. If any slot is unoccupied, install a filler panel to enable proper
airflow and to keep dust out of the chassis.
Dust the equipment every three months to avoid blocking the ventilation openings on the housing.

Warning
Operation of this equipment in a residential environment could cause radio interference.
This equipment is not suitable for use in locations where children are likely to be present.
This equipment should be installed in the equipment room. Only a skilled person should be allowed to
install, replace, or service this equipment. Do not open the enclosure when the equipment is running. Cut
off the power supply before opening the enclosure in case of an electric shock.
1.3.6 Asset Tag
The asset tag is in the lower left corner of the front panel. The tag can be pulled out of the panel. You can add
your own asset tracking label without interfering with the intended air flow.
Figure 1-6 Asset Tag
1.4 Power Module
The smart power module for the RG-S6510-32CQ support power consumption management and hot swapping.
It can obtain the output power, output current, and operating temperature in real time.
Caution
To improve system stability and availability, you are advised to configure 1 + 1 power redundancy. The
chassis configured with power redundancy works in current-sharing mode.
At least one power module is required. If any slot is unoccupied, install a filler panel to enable proper
airflow and to keep dust out of the chassis.
Unplug the power cord before installing or removing the power module.
