Rack Mounting NetVanta 4300/4400 Series

The NetVanta 4300/4400 Series units are housed in a 1U-high, rack-mountable chassis that can be installed into 19-inch equipment racks. Follow these steps to mount the NetVanta 4300/4400 Series in a rack:

•If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature specified by the manufacturer.

•Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

•Be careful not to compromise the stability of the equipment mounting rack when installing this product.

•Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading the circuit might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

•Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).
