The floor area required for an SL-1 depends on the number of columns of

ordered, the length-to-width ratio of the area, and the location of
walls, partitions, windows, and doors. To determine the exact layout
required, prepare a detailed floor plan after reading all of the requirements
provided in this section.
Operating needs determine the location of free-standing peripherals like
printers and terminals. Printers and terminals must not exceed the
maximum distances defined for their interface circuits. Wall jacks and
outlets must be provided for all devices located in the equipment room.
Within a system there are certain requirements that must be met when
