®
network. Please
consider the following when choosing a mounting location.
1. The J2K100 is waterproof, so it can be mounted in a damp or dry location.
2. The orientation is not important, so the J2K100 can be mounted on a horizontal deck,
vertical bulkhead, or even upside down if desired.
3. The J2K100 is temperature rated to 55°C (130°F), so it should be mounted away from
engines or engine rooms where the operating temperature exceeds the specified limit.
