Safety Instructions for Rack Mount Installations

Rack Mount Brackets Do not lift the NX-7500 series integrated services platform using the rack mount brackets.
Rack Mount Rails Use only industry-standard mounting kits when installing the NX-7500 series integrated services platforms, as improper mounting may result in hardware failure and hazardous conditions. It is recommended to use the mounting rails included with the integrated services platform.
Elevated Operating Ambient If installing the NX-7500 series integrated services platform in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the room ambient temperature. Consideration should be given to installing the appliance in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
Reduced Air Flow Installation of the NX-7500 integrated services platform in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading Mounting the NX-7500 integrated services platform in a rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading Consideration should be given when connecting the NX-7500 series integrated services platform to the supply circuit sothat protection is provided to the NX-7500 series integrated services platfrom and supply wiring to avoid circuit overloads. Carefully review the equipment nameplate ratings when addressing this concern.
Reliable Earthing Reliable earthing of the rack mounted NX-7500 integrated services platform should be maintained.

Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).
