Precautions

You should read these precautions before you install a Real Freedom Fiber Base (Rack Mount) in an equipment rack.

  • Before you begin the installation, make sure that the fiber base unit is disconnected from the power source.
  • Close any open spaces in the rack with blank panels since open spaces will reduce cooling efficiency.
  • To prevent risk of overheating, use in a well-ventilated area.
  • Since there is no power button (on/off switch) on the fiber base unit, ensure that you have access to the rear of the rack or leave a sufficient wire management loop to pull the unit out from the front of the rack.
