Cooling 
•  Maintain a minimum clearance of 100 mm (3.94 in) around the air vents. 
•  Make sure the installation site has a good ventilation system. 
EMI 
All electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources, from outside or inside of the router and application 
system, adversely affect the router in the following ways: 
•  A conduction pattern of capacitance coupling. 
•  Inductance coupling. 
•  Electromagnetic wave radiation. 
•  Common impedance (including the grounding system) coupling. 
To prevent EMI, perform the following tasks:  
•  If AC power is used, use a single-phase three-wire power receptacle with protection earth (PE) 
to filter interference from the power grid.  
•  Keep the router far away from radio transmitting stations, radar stations, and high-frequency 
devices.  
•  Use electromagnetic shielding, for example, shielded interface cables, when necessary. 
Lightning protection 
To protect the router from lightning, follow these guidelines: 
•  Make sure the router is reliably grounded by using a grounding cable. 
•  Make sure the power receptacle is reliably grounded. 
•  Install a lightning protector at each power input end.
