Choosing a Location for the STM
The STM is suitable for use in an office environment where it can be free-standing (on its runner
feet) or mounted into a standard 19-inch equipment rack. Alternatively, you can rack-mount the
STM in a wiring closet or equipment room. A mounting kit, containing two mounting brackets and
four screws, is provided in the STM package.
Consider the following when deciding where to position the STM:
• The unit is accessible and cables can be connected easily.
• Cabling is away from sources of electrical noise. These include lift shafts, microwave ovens,
and air-conditioning units.
• Water or moisture cannot enter the case of the unit.
• Airflow around the unit and through the vents in the side of the case is not restricted. Provide a
minimum of 25 mm or 1 inch clearance.
• The air is as free of dust as possible.
