Installing the GSS on a Workbench or Tabletop
When you install a GSS on a workbench or tabletop, ensure that the surface is
clean and in a secure location and that you have complied with the following
requirements:
The chassis should be installed off the floor. Dust that accumulates on the
floor is drawn into the interior of the chassis by the cooling fans. Excessive
dust inside the GSS can cause overtemperature conditions and component
failures.
There must be approximately 19 inches (48.26 cm) of clearance at the front
and rear of the chassis for accessing network cables and equipment.
The GSS must receive adequate ventilation.
Follow these steps to install the GSS on a workbench or tabletop:
1. Remove any debris and dust from the tabletop or workbench, as well as from
the surrounding area. Ensure that your path between the GSS and its new
location is unobstructed.
2. Place one rubber foot in each corner on the bottom of the GSS. The rubber
feet have an adhesive backing. Peel the protective tape off the adhesive and
adhere the feet to the bottom of a clean chassis surface.
3. Place the chassis on the tabletop or workbench.
4. Ensure that no exhaust air from other equipment will be drawn into the
chassis. Also, ensure that there is adequate clearance at the front and rear of
the chassis.
