Describes the requirements of a standard open rack.
If you are mounting the chassis in an open rack (no side panels or doors), ensure that the rack meets these requirements:
-
The minimum vertical rack space per chassis must be equal to the rack unit (RU) of the chassis. One rack unit is equal to 1.75 inches (4.4 cm).
-
The distance between the chassis air vents and any walls should be 2.5 inches (6.4 cm).
