Equipment near the bottom of the rack may generate excessive heat that is drawn upward and into the intake ports of equipment above, leading to overtemperature conditions in the chassis at or near the top of the rack.
Note Allow clearance of 36 inches in front and behind the rack for maintenance and removal of equipment.
