TIPS FOR BETTER RELIABILITY

Component Placement

The following rules apply to the physical placement of components in the rack:

Weight- Sort all components by weight, placing the heaviest components at the bottom of the rack.

Keyboard/Video/Mouse (KVM) Switch Box- The switch box can be mounted either behind the keyboard or within a sidewall to provide a zero-U space solution.

Keyboard- When using a 22U rack, place the keyboard in the topmost position, below the switch box, if applicable. When using either a 42U or a 37U rack, place the keyboard at a nominal height of 18U.

Monitor- When using a 42U or 37U rack, position the monitor topmost within the rack. If using a 22U rack, place the monitor on top of the rack.

Rack and Components- Always make sure to provide adequate ventilation space for both front and back doors to allow ambient room air to enter the rack and to allow the warm air to escape the rack. Be careful not block the ventilation apertures.
