Maintenance Tips

Keep Cool
Ensure adequate ventilation around racks. Avoid blocking air vents or storing items on top of equipment.
UPS Battery Check
UPS batteries typically last 3-5 years. Check the status LED periodically — amber indicates replacement needed.
Dust Prevention
Light dusting every 6 months keeps equipment running efficiently. Use compressed air for vents.
Don’t Power Cycle
Avoid turning equipment off unless necessary. Network gear is designed for 24/7 operation.
Need Service?
Contact Straight Forward Technology for any equipment issues, UPS battery replacements, or system upgrades. Don’t attempt to service rack equipment yourself.
