Chapter 3 Installation Preparations
3.1 Safety Recommendations
Routers play the key role in data communications network. Please pay attention to the
following:
Warning: It indicates that this operation may seriously damage the router or
endanger the operator. Please follow the operation procedures for sake of safety.
Caution: It indicates that during the installation and usage of the router, the
operation needs attention. Though this operation will not do any damage to the router
or endanger the operator, it may affect the normal operation of the router.
Please follow the following safety recommendations during the installation and use of
the router:
z Keep the router away from water or any wet place.
z
Keep the router away from any heat source.
z Make sure that the router is normally grounded.
z Wear ESD-preventive wrist strap during installation.
z Do not hot unplug the modules of the router.
z Do not hot unplug any cable.
z Always use UPS.
3.2 Installation Conditions
R2600/3600 series must be used indoors. To ensure the normal operation and prolong
their service life, the following requirements for installation site must be met.
3.2.1 Temperature and Humidity Requirements
Certain requirements on temperature and humidity in the equipment room shall be met.
If the relative humidity is too high, the insulation materials in it will deteriorate easily or
even lead to electric leakage. Sometimes this will result in change to the mechanical
performance of the materials and rusting of the metal components. If the relative
humidity is too low, the fastening screw will become loosen due to shrinkage of the
isolation spacer. In an environment with dry climate, the static electricity may be
produced, putting the CMOS of the router to risk. High temperature is of the greatest
risk: for it will significantly degrade the router’s reliability, speed up the aging process of
the insulating materials, and shorten the service life of the router. The requirements on
the temperature and humidity for R2600/3600 series are shown in Table 3-1:
