When you install a WAVE appliance on a workbench or tabletop, ensure that the
surface is clean and in a safe location and that you have considered the following
points:
The WAVE appliance should be installed off the floor. (Dust that accumulates
•
on the floor is drawn into the interior of the chassis by the cooling fans.
Excessive dust inside the WAVE appliance can cause overtemperature
conditions and component failures.)
There must be approximately 19 inches (48.26 cm) of clearance at the front
•
and rear of the WAVE appliance for accessing network cables or equipment.
The front should be completely clear. Leave 0.4 inches (10-mm) of clearance
•
on the sides and top of the appliance and at least 2.0 inches (50 mm) of
clearance in the rear. The rear vents should be completely clear.
To install the WAVE appliance on a workbench or tabletop, follow these steps:
Remove any debris and dust from the tabletop or workbench, as well as from the
surrounding area. Also make sure that your path between the WAVE appliance and
its new location is unobstructed.
Place the chassis on the tabletop or workbench.
Ensure that no exhaust air from other equipment will be drawn into the chassis.
Also make sure that there is adequate clearance at the front and rear of the chassis.
You can mount the WAVE appliance on a wall or underneath a desk or workbench
using the optional mounting sleeve. See
