Place the server and monitor so that nothing blocks the air vents; usually, 15 cm (6 inches) of air space is sufficient. Also, make sure that the vented air is not blowing on someone else.
Electrical outlets and cable lengths
The location of electrical outlets and the length of power cords and cables that connect to the monitor, printer, and other devices might determine the final placement of your server.
When arranging your workspace:
•Avoid the use of extension cords. When possible, plug the server power cords directly into electrical outlets.
•Keep power cords and cables neatly routed away from walkways and other areas where they might get kicked accidentally.
