Rack Or Wall Mounting (Sf400/800) - Multitech MultiModem iSMS SF100-G Administrator's Manual

Rack or Wall Mounting (SF400/800)

The MultiModem SF400/800 units can be rack (or wall) mounted with screws using the mounting brackets.
Rack Mounting
Ensure proper installation of the unit in a closed or multi-unit enclosure by following the recommended installation as
defined by the enclosure manufacturer. Do not place the unit directly on top of other equipment or place other
equipment directly on top of the unit. If installing the unit in a closed or multi-unit enclosure, ensure adequate airflow
within the rack so that the maximum recommended ambient temperature (50° C) is not exceeded. Ensure that the unit is
properly connected to earth ground by verifying that it is reliably grounded when mounted within a rack. If a power strip
is used, ensure that the power strip provides adequate grounding of the attached apparatus.
When mounting the equipment in the rack, make sure mechanical loading is even to avoid a hazardous condition. The
rack used must safely support the combined weight of all the equipment it supports.
Ensure that the mains supply circuit is capable of handling the load of the equipment. See the power label on the
equipment for load requirements.
Ensure that only properly qualified service personnel install this equipment. Only connect like circuits - connect SELV
(Secondary Extra Low Voltage) circuits to SELV circuits and TN (Telecommunications Network) circuits to TN circuits.
Note: The ambient temperature of the rack interior must not exceed 50° Celsius.
