CAUTION: Never place your hand inside an empty card or module bay. You should never have cause
to place a hand anywhere inside the Topspin chassis. Unused card and module bays should always have
a Topspin cover over the bay to ensure proper safety, ventilation, and cooling.
CAUTION: The Topspin system contains hot-swappable controller, fan/blower tray, switch controller,
power supply, and gateway expansion modules. The operator may swap these components while power
is still applied to the Topspin system chassis.
General Cautions
CAUTION: No user is authorized to remove the Topspin system enclosure cover. The internal chassis
contains no user-serviceable components. Removing the enclosure cover voids your warranty. See the
warranty card for further details regarding the servicing of your chassis.
CAUTION: Opening and/or modifying expansion and system modules may void your warranty. Refer
to your warranty to determine access restrictions.
In general:
• Do not spill food or liquids on your system components.
• Protect your Topspin system from sudden power-surges and interruptions by using a surge
suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptable power supply (UPS).
• Place cables appropriately so that they do not obstruct any egress within the data center and they do
not block any ventilation inlets or outlets.
• Rack mount the Topspin chassis according to the rack manufacturer recommendations.
CAUTION: Installing the Topspin 360 system chassis into a rack is a 3-person process due to the
weight and size of the 4U unit.
CAUTION: Fill all empty slots in the chassis with blanking panels or expansion modules to maintain
appropriate cooling and airflow.
Laser Cautions
CAUTION: Only qualified service technicians should repair laser devices.
