Rack and Clearance Requirements

Tipping Point recommends that you mount the UnityOne system in a standard 19-or 23-inch rack. The vertical hole spacing on the rack rails must meet standard EIA-310-C requirements, which call for a one inch (2.54 cm) spacing.

Location

The ZPHA should be located near the IPS device in the rack. The device connects to the IPS through the following:

USB cable for power

Network cables (fiber or copper) to receive and transmit network traffic.

When planning the location of the ZPHA, consider the amount of IPS devices you may connect. You can connect up to 5 segments to the ZPHA, depending on the segment components you purchase.

The ZPHA requires only one USB connection for power. The modular ZPHA provides 2 ports (1 type A and 1 type B) on the back panel.

Environmental Requirements

In order for the UnityOne to run properly, your environment must meet the proper criteria.

The following table details the recommendations for temperature, humidity, and altitude settings for the Service Provider (SP) environment.
