6 iDirect Evolution X1 Outdoor Satellite Router Installation and Safety Manual
Physical and Environmental Considerations
Follow the following basic guidelines when working with any electrical equipment:
• Disconnect all power and external cables before installing or removing the chassis.
• Do not work alone when potentially hazardous conditions exist.
• Never assume that power has been disconnected; always check.
• Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the
equipment unsafe. Never install equipment that appears damaged.
• Carefully examine the work area for possible hazards, such as wet floor, ungrounded
power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.
2.3 Physical and Environmental Considerations
To protect the equipment and to avoid personal injury, observe the physical and
environmental considerations below when installing a X1 Outdoor Satellite Router:
• Ventilation
A single core protective vent on the back of the chassis provides pressure equalization and
ensures reliable operation of the product. To protect the chassis from overheating do not
place this product in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or enclosed rack, unless
proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer instructions have been followed.
• Power Sources
Operate this product only from the type of power source indicated on the bottom of
approved power supplies (100 VAC - 240 VAC, 50/60Hz). If the type of power supply is
unknown, consult the teleport operator or local power company.
• Power Cord Protection
Route power supply cords so they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items
placed upon or against them; pay particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and at the point where they exit the product.
• Overloading
