Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation

Precautions for Products with Modems, Telecommunications, or Local Area Network Options

Baffles can help to 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. Experiment with different arrangements to position the baffles effectively.

Precautions for Products with Modems, Telecommunications, or Local Area Network Options

Observe the following guidelines when working with these components:

Do not connect or use a modem or telephone during a lighting storm. There may be a risk of electrical shock from lightning.

Never connect or use a modem or telephone in a wet environment.

Do not plug a modem or telephone cable into the Ethernet connector.

Disconnect the modem cable before opening a product enclosure, touching or installing internal components, or touching an uninsulated modem cable or jack.

Do not use a telephone line to report a gas leak while you are in the vicinity of the leak.
