13NetShelter CX Enclosure: Installation and Customization
Equipment Planning Guidelines
Please note the following guidelines for proper installation and operation of hardware in a NetShelter CX
Enclosure.
Avoid clustering hot-running equipment
such as servers, dense redundant arrays of
independent disks (RAID), and large
voice-over-internet-protocol (VOIP)
switches in one part of the enclosure.
Distribute the thermal load evenly up and
down the enclosure such that each fan
module supports an equal amount of the
thermal load.
Each fan module has a triangular metal
section protruding slightly into the
enclosure. This does not create an issue for
installation of most equipment, but to
allow for ample cabling space to the rear
of the enclosure, deep servers should be
installed in the enclosure space above and
below these triangular metal protrusions.
