NSTALLING THE

To ensure the proper working of the routers, and to prolong their service life, the
installation site should meet the requirements described in the following
subsections.
3000 DSL Family must be used indoors. To ensure the normal operation and
prolong their service life, the following requirements for installation site must be
met.
Certain requirements on temperature and humidity in the equipment room shall
be met. If the relative humidity is too high, the insulation materials in it will
deteriorate easily or even lead to electric leakage. Sometimes this will result in a
change of the mechanical performance of the materials, and rusting of the metal
components. If the relative humidity is too low, the fastening screw will loosen due
to shrinkage of the isolation spacer. In an environment with a dry climate static
electricity may be produced, putting the CMOS of the router to risk. High
temperature is of the greatest risks, for it will significantly degrade the router's
reliability, speed up the aging process of the insulating materials, and shorten the
service life of the router. Below are the requirements on the temperature and
humidity for 3000 DSL Family:

Dust undermines the normal operation of 3000 DSL Family. Dust on the
equipment can cause electrostatic adsorption, which degrades the contact
performance of the metal connectors or connection points. This happens more
frequently when the indoor humidity is low, which will not only shorten the
router's service life, but also cause communication failure.
Below is the recommended specification on dust content and particle diameter in
the equipment room:
