NetVanta 6240 Series Hardware Installation Guide Unit Installation

Mounting Options

The unit may be installed in rackmount, wallmount, or tabletop configurations. The following sections provide

step-by-step instructions for rack mounting and wall mounting.

Rack Mounting the NetVanta

The NetVanta is a 1U-high, rack-mountable unit that can be installed into a 19-inch equipment rack. The

following steps guide you in mounting the NetVanta into a rack.

• If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature

of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore,

consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible

with the maximum ambient temperature specified by the manufacturer.

• 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.

• Be careful not to compromise the stability of the equipment mounting rack when

installing this product.

• Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit

and the effect that overloading the circuit might have on overcurrent protection and

supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be

used when addressing this concern.

• Reliable grounding 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).
