How to use

Position the freestanding rack on a level indoor surface, ensuring adequate clearance for ventilation at the front and rear.

Distribute weight evenly across the rack and place heavier equipment towards the bottom to maintain stability. Route power and network cables through available openings or cable management accessories to minimise airflow obstruction and simplify maintenance.

Usage recommendations

For safe operation, avoid exceeding the stated load capacity and ensure the rack is installed in a dry, dust-managed indoor environment consistent with the IP20 rating. Use appropriate airflow practices and consider additional ventilation or cable management accessories if installing heat-generating equipment. Regularly inspect mounting hardware and grounding as part of routine maintenance.
