Install the Switched Rack PDU
Installation guidelines
If the PDU is installed in an enclosed communications rack, the
recommended maximum ambient temperature should be no greater
than 45°C.
Install the PDU so that there is air flow to the front and rear face of
the unit.
Install the PDU so that there is not an uneven mechanical load.
Follow the nameplate ratings when connecting equipment to the
supply circuit. Consider the effect that overloading the circuits
might have on over-circuit protection and supply wiring.
Maintain reliable earthing of the PDU. Give particular
consideration to supply connections that do not directly connect to
the branch circuit.
The PDU does not provide overcurrent protection. Connect the
PDU to an appropriately rated branch circuit.
Install the PDU so that the power plug may be disconnected for
service.
Attach the cord
retention tray
Attach the cord retention tray to the Switched Rack PDU, using the four
flat-head screws (provided).
How to attach cords to
the tray
Attach the cord to the tray by looping the cord and securing it to the tray,
using a wire tie.
Note
The cord must be secured to the tray so that you can unplug
it from the PDU without removing the wire tie.
