Principle
7. The power cable and signal cable are separated at a distance of longer than
3 cm.
8. Each circuit breaker in the PDU connects only to one device.
9. The power of the devices in the cabinet matches the rated current of the
protection components. The devices and system enclosures of the same
model receive power from the protection components of the same rated
current.
10. If circuit breakers need to be vertically connected onsite, cables are
routed to the circuit breaker from top to the bottom.
A clearance of 1 U is available between every two system enclosures in a cabinet. (1 U =
44.45 mm/1.75 in.).
The device layout must conform to the power distribution design of the entire cabinet and
meet heat dissipation requirements in the equipment room (depending on the actual heat
dissipation condition).
At least a clearance of 120 cm is available between cabinets and 100 cm between a cabinet
and the wall.
A pair of delivery-attached guide rails can bear a component of more than 50 kg.
Components are arranged in convenient locations for cabling. Space is reserved for future
expansion.
