General Considerations
When determining the placement of your system, consider the following:
v Adequate space for the devices.
v Working environment of personnel who will be using the devices (their comfort, ability to access the
devices, supplies, and reference materials).
v Adequate space for maintaining and servicing the devices.
v Physical security requirements necessary for the devices.
v Weight of the devices.
v Heat output of the devices.
v Operating temperature requirements of the devices.
– When using tape media, the maximum operating temperature is 16 to 32°C (60 to 90°F). The
maximum operating wet bulb temperature is 23°C (73°F), unless otherwise specified in the system
specifications
v Humidity requirements of the devices.
– When using tape media, the humidity is 20 to 80%.
v Air flow requirements of the devices.
v Air quality of the location where the devices will be used. (For example, excess dust could damage your
system.)
Note: The system and devices are designed to operate in normal office environments. Dirty or other
poor environments may damage the system or the devices. The customer is responsible for
providing the proper operating environment.
v Altitude limitations of the devices.
v Noise emission levels of the devices.
v Any vibration of equipment near where the devices will be placed.
v Paths of power cords.
