CHAPTER 2
Hardware Installation and
Connection
This chapter shows you how to install the VSG and make hardware connections.
2.1 Installation Options
The following sections describe the different installation options.
2.1.1 Desktop Installation
1 Make sure the VSG is clean and dry. Set the VSG on a smooth space strong enough to
support the weight of the VSG and the connected cables. Make sure there is a power
outlet nearby.
2 Make sure there is enough clearance around the VSG to allow air circulation and the
attachment of cables and the power cord.
3 Attach the rubber feet to each corner on the bottom of the VSG. These rubber feet help
protect the VSG from shock or vibration and ensure space between devices when
stacking.
2.1.2 Rack Mount Installation
The VSG can be mounted on an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack or in a wiring closet with
other equipment. Follow the steps below to mount your VSG on a standard EIA rack using the
included rack-mounting kit.
1 Align one bracket with the holes on one side of the VSG and secure it with the bracket
screws (smaller than the rack-mounting screws. Similarly, attach the other bracket.
Note: Do NOT block the ventilation holes and leave adequate space on the
rear and sides of the VSG during hardware installation or when stacking.
