Before You Begin
The location of the chassis, the layout of the equipment rack, and the security of
your wiring room are crucial for proper device operation.
CAUTION:
To prevent abuse and intrusion by unauthorized personnel, install the
device in a secure environment.
Observing the following precautions can prevent shutdowns, equipment failures,
and injuries:
Before installation, always check that the power supply is disconnected from
any power source.
Ensure that the room in which you operate the device has adequate air
circulation and that the room temperature does not exceed
Allow three feet (one meter) of clear space to the front and back of the device.
Do not place the device in an equipment-rack frame that blocks an intake or
exhaust port. Ensure that enclosed racks have fans and louvered sides.
This device exceeds 18 pounds (8.2 kilograms). Take precautions when lifting
and stabilizing the device.
Correct these hazardous conditions before any installation: moist or wet floors,
leaks, ungrounded or frayed power cables, or missing safety grounds.
You can rack-mount the SSG 550M-series device into a standard 19-inch equipment
rack. The device is shipped with mounting brackets. The equipment is suitable for
installation in locations where the National Electrical Code (NEC) applies, as well as
in Network Telecommunication Facilities.
You can center- or front-mount an SSG 500M-series device in a rack. In general, a
center-mount rack is preferable to a front-mount rack because the more even
distribution of weight in the center-mount rack provides greater stability.
If you are installing multiple devices in one rack, install the lowest one first and
proceed upward in the rack.
The device weighs between 23 lb. (10.4 kg) and 31 lb. (14.1 kg).
CAUTION:
Installing it into the rack requires at least one person to lift the device and a
second person to secure the mounting screws.
To mount the device, you must have number-2 phillips screwdriver (not provided)
and four screws that are compatible with the equipment rack (not provided).
