2.5 Mounting the Unit
SecureSync units can be operated on a desktop or in a rack in a horizontal, right-side-up pos-
ition. The location needs to be well-ventilated, clean and accessible.
2.5.1 Rack Mounting
If installing the unit in a rack, install the rack-mount ears on the two sides of the front panel and
mount the unit in a standard 19-inch rack cabinet. The unit is intended to be installed in one ori-
entation only. The unit should be mounted so the front panel interface keys are to the left of the
display area.
The SecureSync unit will install into any EIA standard 19-inch rack. SecureSync occupies one
rack unit of space for installation, however, it is recommended to leave empty space of at least
one rack unit above and below the SecureSync unit to allow for best ventilation.
