Installing the S7-400

Space Required When Using Cable Channels and Fan Subassemblies

A cable duct or fan subassembly must be installed in the 19-inch pitch immediately below the rack. Additional space for cable routing must be provided on both sides.

The following figure shows how much space you need to allow for when using a cable duct or fan subassembly.

440 mm
