INSTALLING THE GATEWAY
Introduction
This chapter will guide you through a basic installation of the
OfficeConnect Cable/DSL Secure Gateway, including:
■ Connecting the Gateway to the Internet.
■ Connecting the Gateway to your network.
Positioning the Gateway
You should place the Cable/DSL Secure Gateway in a location
that:
■ is conveniently located for connection to the cable or DSL
modem that will be used to connect to the Internet.
■ allows convenient connection to the computers that are to be
connected to the four LAN ports on the rear panel.
■ allows easy viewing of the front panel LED indicator lights,
and access to the rear panel connectors, if necessary.

When positioning your Gateway, ensure:
■ It is out of direct sunlight and away from sources of heat.
■ Cabling is away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures,
and sources of electrical noise such as radios, transmitters and
broadband amplifiers.
■ Water or moisture cannot enter the case of the unit.
■ Air flow around the unit and through the vents in the side of
the case is not restricted. We recommend you provide a
minimum of 25mm (1in.) clearance.
Using the Rubber Feet
Use the four self-adhesive rubber feet to prevent your Gateway
from moving around on your desk or when stacking with flat top
OfficeConnect units. Only stick the feet to the marked areas at
each corner of the underside of your Gateway.
