Install modules and a Management Module if you are using one,
into the chassis, and check their operation
4
Attach your network cabling to the modules you have installed.
A Suitable Site For Installation
Before you install the MSH, make sure that the location you have
chosen is suitable. There should be:
■
Adequate ventilation. The chassis has three sets of ventilation
holes - one on the top of the chassis, one at the back and one
underneath. Ventilation panels and the air-intake at the front of
the fan tray must be free of obstructions at all times to allow
adequate circulation of cooling air.
■
Adequate clearance to allow for cable connections, viewing and
use of display panel and LEDs, and installation and removal of
modules.
■
Access to a power supply with two sockets.
■
No direct sources of electrical interference in the immediate area,
for example, machinery, power lines, transmitters.
■
No danger of condensation, liquids or excessive amounts of dust
entering the chassis.
Remember also that the MSH operates correctly in temperatures
between 0°C and 40°C (32°F and 104°F).
Installing The Chassis
A pair of brackets for mounting the MSH are supplied with the
chassis. The MSH can be:
■
Fitted into a standard 19 inch rack system.
■
Left as a stand-alone piece of equipment, for example, on a desk
or shelf.
