2 - 6 ONline 17-Slot System Concentrator Installation and Operation Guide
Table Top Installation Requirements
For table top or shelf mount installation of the ONline System Concentrator
you must make sure the table or shelf can support 100 pounds (45 kg) for
a fully loaded 17-slot concentrator. (The concentrator itself, fully loaded
and with cable tray, weighs almost 75 pounds/34 kilograms.) The
table/shelf also must be less than 6 feet (2 meters) from the nearest AC
outlet.
To ensure proper airflow to the unit, you should leave at least 1.75"
(4.45cm) of space below the concentrator (provided by the installed rubber
feet) and by installing the cable tray below the concentrator.
