Installation Precautions
The router should already be in the area where you will install it, and your installation location
should already be determined. If not, see Site Requirement Guidelines (on page 4-3) and the Site
Preparation and Safety Guide.
When installing the SCE 2000, please observe the following conditions:

Installing the SCE 2000 on a Workbench or Tabletop
You can install the SCE 2000 platform on any flat surface as long as the surface is large enough
for the SCE 2000 (see the table in SCE 2000 Dimensions), and allows for adequate
airflow/ventilation around the sides of the SCE 2000, as described in the Installation Precautions
(on page 4-5). When installing the SCE 2000 on a workbench or tabletop or in a rack, ensure that
the surface is clean and in a safe location.
Figure 4-3: Installing the System on a Flat Surface
To install a SCE 2000 platform on a workbench or tabletop, complete the following steps:
Remove any debris and dust from the tabletop or workbench, as well as the surrounding area.
Step 1
Also make sure your path between the SCE 2000 platform and its new location is unobstructed.
Step 2
Place the SCE 2000 platform on the tabletop or workbench.
Step 3
View the bottom panel by lifting the SCE 2000, placing your hands around the SCE 2000 sides
and lifting the SCE 2000 from underneath. To prevent injury, avoid sudden twists or moves.
There are four marked locations, indicating where to affix the rubber feet (see figure above).

Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of clearance at its left and right sides for airflow clearance from
the inlet and exhaust vents, and that no exhaust air from other equipment is drawn into the
SCE 2000. For descriptions and illustrations regarding airflow, see Airflow (on page 4-3).
Do not place the SCE 2000 on the floor during installation. Dust that accumulates on the floor
is drawn into the interior of the SCE 2000 by the cooling fans. Excessive dust inside the SCE
2000 can cause over-temperature conditions and component failures.
Allow at least 5 inches (12.7 cm) of clearance at the front and rear of the SCE 2000 for
installing and rudimentary maintenance for accessing network cables or equipment.
Ensure that the SCE 2000 will receive adequate ventilation. Do not install the SCE 2000 in an
enclosed cabinet where ventilation is inadequate!
Provide an adequate chassis Ground (earth) connection for the SCE 2000 (see Attaching a
Chassis Ground Connection (on page 4-10) for instructions).
