We recommend that you change the air filter every 3 months. However, examine the air filter once
a month (or more often in dusty environments) and replace it if it appears to be excessively dirty
or damaged. To comply with Telecordia GR-63-Core standard air filter requirements for NEBS
deployments, the air filter must be replaced, not cleaned.
