Issue:
Customers need to correctly identify a 'U-space' or 'rack space.'
Product Line:
NetShelter SX
Environment:
All versions and serial ranges.
Cause:
Incorrect placement of equipment can create airflow problems, like hot air recirculation.
Resolution: see below
As set forth by the EIA/ECA-310-E Standard:
1. For any Rackmount device or enclosure - a U or unit of rack space is equivalent to 1.75 inches or 44.45 mm.
2. The mounting hole pattern on a rack or enclosure must follow the following guideline:
EIA/ECA-310-E rail specifications in attached file.
To properly mount a device in the rack, a user needs to utilize the notched square mounting hole to indicate the center of a U space. For Example, to mount a 1 U device, 3 mounting holes would be covered by the device with the notched hole residing in the center of the group of 3. Mounting in an "off-U position", effectively moving the installed device 1 hole space up or down is incorrect and will lead to airflow and cooling issues.
