Site Planning

Planning the proper location and layout of your SN 5428 Storage Router, your equipment rack, or wiring closet is essential for successful storage router operation. Equipment placed too close together or in an inadequately ventilated area can cause system overtemperature conditions. In addition, poor equipment placement can make system panels inaccessible and difficult to maintain.

To ensure normal operation and to avoid unnecessary maintenance, plan your site configuration and prepare your site before installation.

Table A-1 on page A-1lists the operating and nonoperating environmental site requirements for the SN 5428 Storage Router. Within specified environmental ranges the system can continue to operate; however, a measurement that approaches the minimum or maximum of a range indicates a potential problem. You can maintain normal operation by anticipating and correcting environmental conditions before they exceed the maximum operating range.

Verify the site power for the type of device you are installing. Power requirements are useful for planning the power distribution system needed to support the storage router. Heat dissipation is an important consideration for sizing the air-conditioning requirements for an installation. See Table A-1 on page A-1for power and heat ratings for the storage router.

Caution To prevent a loss of input power, verify that the total maximum load on the circuit supplying power to the power supply is within the current ratings of the wiring and breakers.
