Clearances
There are no clearance restrictions for the top and bottom of the transmitter.
Check the clearance around the host cabinet to ensure that you will be able to open all doors and
access panels. Ensure adequate space is available at the front of the cabinet to allow pulling out the
transmitter for servicing fan filters and internal parts/assemblies. Also consider access to the rear of the
cabinet for making connections to the transmitter.
Internal fans pull cooling air through air filters in the front of the transmitter. Air exhausts through grills
at the rear of the transmitter.
