SAFETY & REGULATORY INFORMATION
Site Selection
The system is designed to operate in a typical office environment. Choose a site that is:
• Clean and free of airborne particles (other than normal room dust).
• Well ventilated and away from sources of heat including direct sunlight and radiators.
• Away from sources of vibration or physical shock.
• Isolated from strong electromagnetic fields produced by electrical devices.
• In regions that are susceptible to electrical storms, we recommend you plug your system
into a surge suppressor and disconnect telecommunication lines to your modem during an
electrical storm.
• Provided with a properly grounded wall outlet.
• Provided with sufficient space to access the power supply cord(s), because they serve as the
product’s main power disconnect.
• Provided with either two independent AC power sources or two independent phases from a
single source.
Equipment Handling Practices
Reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage:
• Conform to local occupational health and safety requirements when moving and lifting
equipment.
• Use mechanical assistance or other suitable assistance when moving and lifting the
equipment.
• To reduce the weight for easier handling, remove any easily detachable components.
Power and Electrical Warnings
• The power is active whenever the system is plugged in. To remove power from
the system, you must unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet. Your
system may use more than one AC power cord. Make sure all AC power cords are
unplugged. Make sure the AC power cord(s) is/are unplugged before you open the
chassis, or add or remove any non hot-plug components.
• Do not attempt to modify or use an AC power cord if it is not the exact type
required. A separate AC cord is required for each system power supply.
• The power supply in this product contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not open
the power supply. Hazardous voltage, current and energy levels are present inside
the power supply. Return to manufacturer for servicing.
• When replacing a hot-plug power supply, unplug the power cord to the power
supply being replaced before removing it from the switch.
