Precautions and rack mount safety

2.2 Precautions and rack mount safety
Avoiding potential video and/or keyboard problems when using
the KVM s2-1602/0801
• If the building has 3-phase AC power, ensure that the computer
and monitor are on the same phase. For best results, they should
be on the same circuit.
• Use only Fujitsu Technology Solutions-supplied cable to connect
computers and KVM switches. Fujitsu Technology Solutions
warranties do not apply to damage resulting from user-supplied
cable.
Avoiding potentially fatal shock hazard and possible damage
to equipment
• Do not use a 2-wire extension cord in any of the Fujitsu Technology
Solutions product configurations.
• Test AC outlets at the computer and monitor for proper polarity and
grounding.
• Use only with grounded outlets at both the computer and monitor.
When using a backup Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), power the
computer, the monitor and the appliance off the supply.
The AC inlet is the main disconnect.
Rack mount safety considerations
• Elevated Ambient Temperature: If installed in a closed rack as-
sembly, the operation temperature of the rack environment may
be greater than room ambient. Use care not to exceed the rated
maximum ambient temperature of the unit.
• Reduced Air Flow: Installation of the equipment in a rack should be
such that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the
equipment is not compromised.
• Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack should
be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven
mechanical loading.
• Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the
connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that
overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection and
supply wiring. Consider equipment nameplate ratings for maximum
current.
• Reliable Earthing: Reliable earthing of rack mounted equipment
should be maintained. Pay particular attention to supply
connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for
example, use of power strips).
