Installation 5.1 Rackmount Considerations 5.1.1 Ambient Operating Temperature The ambient operating temperature in the rack may be an issue and depends on the rack load and ventilation. When installing the KVM switch in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, make sure that the temperature will not exceed the maximum rated ambient temperature. 5.1.2 Airflow Ensure that the airflow through the rack is not compromised. 5.1.3 Circuit Overloading When connecting the KVM switch to the supply circuit, consider the effect that overloading of circuits might have on over-current protection and supply wiring. Reliable grounding of all rack-mounted equipment must be maintained. To protect against circuit overloading you should connect your Console KVM and attached computers/servers to a Tripp Lite SmartPro® or SmartOnline® UPS System. 4 14-03-231-933350.indd 4 3/27/2014 4:38:34 PM

The ambient operating temperature in the rack may be an issue and depends on the rack load and
ventilation. When installing the KVM switch in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, make sure that
the temperature will not exceed the maximum rated ambient temperature.
Ensure that the airflow through the rack is not compromised.
When connecting the KVM switch to the supply circuit, consider the effect that overloading of
circuits might have on over-current protection and supply wiring.
Reliable grounding of all rack-mounted equipment must be maintained.
To protect against circuit overloading you should connect your Console KVM and attached
computers/servers to a Tripp Lite SmartPro
