To place the system in a proper location, it is necessary to know the dimensions of the device's chassis.
The Cisco 5400 ENCS can be placed on a desktop or installed in a rack. The mounting ears for the device are
designed for #12-24 UNC screws.
The location of your device and the layout of your equipment rack or wiring room are extremely important
considerations for proper operation. Equipment placed too close together, inadequate ventilation, and
inaccessible panels can cause malfunctions and shutdowns, and can make maintenance difficult. Plan for
access to both front and rear panels of the device.
This information can help you plan the rack configuration for your equipment:
• Allow clearance around the rack for maintenance.
• Allow at least one rack unit of vertical space between devices.
• Enclosed racks must have adequate ventilation. Ensure that the rack is not congested, because each device
• When mounting a chassis in an open rack, ensure that the rack frame does not block the intake or exhaust
Power Guidelines and Requirements
Check the power at your site to ensure that you are receiving "clean" power (free of spikes and noise). Install
a power conditioner if necessary.
The AC power supply supports either 110V or 220V operation. All units include a 6-foot (1.8-meter) electrical
power cord. (A label near the power inlet indicates the correct voltage, frequency [AC-powered systems only],
current draw, and power dissipation for the unit.)

generated by equipment near the bottom of the rack can be drawn upward into the intake ports of the
equipment above it.
