proof sockets are freely accessible.
The On/Off button or the main power switch (if present) does not
isolate the device from the mains power supply. To disconnect it completely from the mains power supply, unplug all network power plugs from the grounded shockproof sockets.
Always connect the server and the attached peripherals to the same
power circuit. Otherwise you run the risk of losing data if, for example, the server is still running but a peripheral device (e.g. memory subsystem) fails during a power outage.
Data cables must be adequately shielded.
The EN 50173 and EN 50174-1/2 standards apply for LAN cabling.
The minimum requirement is the use of a category 5 screened LAN cable for 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet, or a category 5e cable for Gigabit Ethernet. The requirements from the ISO/IEC 11801 specification must also be met.
Route the cables in such a way that they do not create a potential
hazard (make sure no-one can trip over them) and that they cannot be damaged. When connecting the server, refer to the relevant instructions in this manual.
Never connect or disconnect data transmission lines during a storm
(risk of lightning strike).
Make sure that no objects (e.g. jewelry, paperclips etc.) or liquids can
get inside the server (risk of electric shock, short circuit).
In emergencies (e.g. damaged casing, controls or cables, penetration
of liquids or foreign bodies), switch off the server immediately, remove all power plugs and contact your sales outlet or customer service team.
