Cisco Systems AS5400XM quick start Required Tools and Equipment, Attaching Brackets

•When mounting a chassis in an open rack, ensure that the rack frame does not block the intake or exhaust ports. If the chassis is installed on slides, check the position of the chassis when it is seated in the rack.

•Baffles can isolate exhaust air from intake air, which also helps to draw cooling air through the chassis. The best placement of the baffles depends on the airflow patterns in the rack, which can be found by experimenting with different configurations.

•When equipment installed in a rack (particularly in an enclosed rack) fails, try operating the equipment by itself, if possible. Power down other equipment in the rack (and in adjacent racks) to allow the unit under test a maximum of cooling air and clean power.

•Install the chassis and external devices to which it will connect in a contiguous stack.
