Equipment Planning Guidelines

Please note the following guidelines for proper installation and operation of hardware in a NetShelter CX Enclosure.

Avoid clustering hot-running equipment such as servers, dense redundant arrays of independent disks (RAID), and large voice-over-internet-protocol (VOIP) switches in one part of the enclosure. Distribute the thermal load evenly up and down the enclosure such that each fan module supports an equal amount of the thermal load.

Each fan module has a triangular metal section protruding slightly into the enclosure. This does not create an issue for installation of most equipment, but to allow for ample cabling space to the rear of the enclosure, deep servers should be installed in the enclosure space above and below these triangular metal protrusions.
