Site preparations
VEP4600 is universal customer premise equipment (uCPE). To connect the service provider
edge or enterprise branch to the cloud, use VEP4600 to host multiple virtual network
functions (VNFs), such as SD-WAN, routing, rewall, and deep-packet inspection.
For more information about VEP4600 specications, see Chassis physical design.
NOTE: Install the platform into a rack or cabinet before installing any optional
components.

• Cabinet placement
• Rack mounting
• System ground
• Fans and airow
• Power
• Storing components
Site selection
Install your equipment in restricted access areas. A restricted access area is one where
service personnel can only gain access using a special tool, lock, key, or other means of
security. The authority responsible for the location controls access to the restricted area.
Ensure that the area where you install your platform meets the following safety
requirements:
• Near an adequate power source. Connect the platform to the appropriate branch circuit
protection according to your local electrical codes.
• Environmental—platform location—continuous temperature range is from 0°C to 45°C
(32°F to 113°F).
2
Site preparations 7
• Operating humidity is from 5 to 90 percent non-condensing, continuous.
• In a dry, clean, well-ventilated, and temperature-controlled room, away from heat sources
such as hot cooling vents or direct sunlight.
• Away from sources of severe electromagnetic noise.
• Positioned in a rack or cabinet, or on a desktop with adequate space in the front, back,
and sides for proper ventilation and access.
• Install the platform in Information Technology Rooms in accordance with Article 645 of
the National Electrical Code and NFPA 75.
For more information about platform storage and environmental temperatures, see
Specications.
Cabinet placement
Install VEP4600 only in indoor cabinets designed for use in a controlled environment.
Do not install the platform in outside cabinets. For cabinet placement requirements, see Site
selection.
The cabinet must meet minimum size requirements. Airow must be in accordance with the
Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) standard. Ensure that there is a minimum of 5 inches
(12.7 cm) between the intake and exhaust vents and the cabinet wall.
Rack mounting
When you prepare your equipment rack, ensure that the rack is grounded. Ground the
equipment rack to the same ground point the power service in your area uses. The ground
path must be permanent.
System ground
Dell recommends grounding your system. Use VEP4600 in a CBN.
Fans and airow
Fan installation is done as part of the factory install based on stock keeping unit (SKU) type.
VEP 4600 supports an AC normal fan unit with fan airow from the I/O to the PSU.
8Site preparations
For proper ventilation, position the platform in an equipment rack or cabinet with a minimum
of 5 inches (12.7 cm) of clearance around the exhaust vents. The fan speed varies based on
internal temperature monitoring. The platform never intentionally turns o the fans.
Power
Connect the platform to the applicable power source using the appropriate power cable. An
AC power cable is included with the platform.
When installing AC platforms, follow the requirements of the National Electrical Code ANSI/
NFPA 70, where applicable.
The platform is powered-up when the power cable is connected between the platform and
the power source.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the power cable before you service the power supply
slots. The platform has multiple power cords. Before servicing, ensure that all power
cords are disconnected.
CAUTION: Use the power supply cable as the main disconnect device. Ensure that
the socket-outlet is located/installed near the equipment and is easily accessible.
Storing components
If you do not install the VEP4600 and components immediately, properly store the platform
and all optional components following these guidelines:
• Storage location temperature must remain constant. The storage range is from -40°C to
70°C (-40°F to 158°F).
• Store on a dry surface or oor, away from direct sunlight, heat, and air conditioning
ducts.
• Store in a dust-free environment.
NOTE: ESD damage can occur when components are mishandled. Always wear an
ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when handling the platform and its
accessories. After you remove the original packaging, place the VEP4600 and its
components on an anti-static surface.
