Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Preparing for Installation
15
◼ Install the router into an open cabinet. If the router is installed into a closed cabinet, ensure that the cabinet
has proper ventilation and heat dissipation.
◼ The cabinet is strong enough to support the weight of the router and its accessories.
◼ You are advised to install the device into a standard cabinet and maintain a proper clearance around the air
vents for heat dissipation.
◼ The cabinet is properly grounded.
2.2.2 Ventilation Requirements
Maintain a minimum clearance of 100 mm (3.94 in.) around the device for air circulation and normal heat
dissipation. After various cables are connected, bundle the cables or place them in the cable management
bracket to avoid blocking air inlets. Dust the device every three months to avoid blocking the ventilation openings.
2.2.3 Space Requirements
It is recommended that the width of the equipment room corridor be greater than 0.8m (31.50 in.) to ensure
enough space for moving chassis.
Please do not install the device against the wall. Instead, please maintain a minimum clearance of 0.4 m (15.75
in.) around the device for heat dissipation and device maintenance.
2.2.4 Temperature/Humidity Requirements
To ensure the normal operation and prolonged service life of the device, maintain an appropriate temperature
and humidity in the equipment room.
The equipment room with too high or too low temperature and humidity for a long period may damage the device.
⚫ In an environment with high relative humidity, the insulating material may have poor insulation or even leak
electricity.
⚫ In an environment with low relative humidity, the insulating strip may dry and shrink, loosening screws.
⚫ In a dry environment, static electricity is prone to occur and damage the internal circuits of the device.
⚫ Too high temperatures can accelerate the aging of insulation materials, greatly reducing the reliability of the
device and severely affecting its service life.
The temperature and humidity requirements of the device are as follows:
