For information on cabling, refer to "Installing power supplies in a BigIron RX-16 chassis" on page 54, "Attaching a management station" on page 77, and "Connecting a BigIron RX Series switch" on page 105. Installation location Before installing the switch, plan its location and orientation relative to other devices and equipment. For cooling purposes, allow a minimum of six inches of space between the sides, front, and the back of the chassis and walls or other obstructions. If a chassis is installed within a perforated enclosure, the perforations must have openings of at least 60 percent of the surface. If you will be using a mechanical lift to move and install the chassis, make sure you allow enough working room. BigIron RX Installation Guide 47 53-1001811-01
