Pathlight VX Site Preparation Guide 23

Additional Rack Requirements

Verify the Pathlight VX rack meets these additional requirements:

• The rack has a reliable branch circuit ground connection available to all installed equipment. Do not

rely on a connection to a branch circuit, such as a power strip.

• The rack is mechanically anchored to the building structure to ensure stability in the event of an

earthquake. Prepare the installation site for mounting bolts to secure the stabilizer brackets to the

site floor.

• The rack ventilates from front to back, so adequate clearance is required to service and cool the

system.

Verifying Tool Requirements

Table 13 lists the tools required to install the Pathlight VX. Verify that the tools will be onsite and available
