Cautions and Warnings
Environmental specifications Ambient operating temperature: 0°C to 40°C
Rack Mount Instructions – The following or similar rack-mount instructions are
included with the installation instructions:
Elevated Operating Ambient – If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
Reduced Air Flow – Installation of the equipment 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 of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading – Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Earthing – Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment 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).
Refer to specific Product Model Data Sheet for Environmental Specifications (Operating Temperature, Storage Temperature, Humidity, and Altitude)
Safety
Moving parts — Hazardous moving parts. Keep away from moving fan blades.
Warning: Equipment intended for installation in Restricted Access Location.
Warning: A readily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated in the building installation wiring.
Warning: A UL Listed external disconnect device, i.e. circuit breaker or other, with over current protection suitable for local code (rated 6A recommended) shall be installed with this equipment.
Battery Risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode. Dispose of used
batteries according to your local regulations.
IMPORTANT: Switzerland: Annex 4.10 of SR814.013 applies to batteries.
CAUTION: Shock Hazard. Disconnect all power sources.
Grounding — To prevent damage to your equipment, connections that enter from outside the building should pass through a lightning / surge protector, and be properly grounded. Use an electrostatic discharge workstation (ESD) and/or wear an anti-static wrist strap while you work. In addition to the grounding terminal of the plug, on the back panel, there is another, separate terminal for earthing.
Caution: Slide/rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a work
space.
Warning: Stability hazard.
The rack may tip over causing serious personal injury.
Before extending the rack to the installation position, read the installation instructions.
Do not put any load on the slide-rail mounted equipment in the installation position.
Do not put any load on the slide-rail mounted equipment in the installation position.
Do not leave the slide-rail mounted equipment in the installation position.
Laser Class 1 optical transceiver shall be used only
IEC 60825-1:2014 transfer to FDA/CDRH Complies with FDA performance standards
for laser products except for conformance with IEC 60825-1 Ed.3., as described
in Laser Notice No. 56, dated May 8, 2019.
