TALLATION
This chapter provides the installer with relevant information concerning the pre-installation of a
DS2000-IFR. The installer should make themselves familiar with the requirements listed in this chapter
prior to beginning the install to ensure no unnecessary delays occur. This chapter details the power,
environmental, space, and physical requirements for the hardware to operate properly.

EQUIREMENTS
The installation of the DS2000-IFR requires no special hand tools or other special equipment. The unit is
designed to be installed in standard 19" racks. The installer will need a standard screw driver, torque wrench
(rated for ten and 32 inch pounds) and a wrench to connect a ground wire from the device chassis ground to
the rack. The instructions in this manual cover only the physical installation. The configuration, not
described here, requires a terminal be connected to the device. The following sections detail the needs of the
DS2000-IFR and what provisions must be present at the site for a safe and easy installation.
2.1.1 Environmental
The operating characteristics of the DS2000-IFR are listed in the following table. Ensure that the
installation site meets these criteria.
2.1.2 Rack Requirements
The DS2000-IFR is shipped with the standard 19" brackets installed which can be rotated for other than
standard installations. Before installing the DS2000-IFR verify that the installation site meets the following
requirements:
• The installation location will give access to the required network and power connections
• The rack is not overloaded and, that after adding the DS2000-IFR, will remain stable and
mechanical overloading will not occur
• The DS2000-IFR requires two inches of free space from any other heat producing devices,
to ensure that overheating does not occur. Example: The DS2000-IFR may be table or wall
mounted. Direct contact with a non-heat generating surface will not cause an over heating
condition. Stacking two DS2000-IFRs could cause either or both devices to fail due to heat
build up between the devices.
