Chapter 3 Installing the GSS

Installing Your GSS

Installing the GSS on a Workbench or Tabletop

When you install a GSS on a workbench or tabletop, ensure that the surface is clean and in a secure location and that you have complied with the following requirements:

The chassis should be installed off the floor. Dust that accumulates on the floor is drawn into the interior of the chassis by the cooling fans. Excessive dust inside the GSS can cause overtemperature conditions and component failures.

There must be approximately 19 inches (48.26 cm) of clearance at the front and rear of the chassis for accessing network cables and equipment.

The GSS must receive adequate ventilation.

Follow these steps to install the GSS on a workbench or tabletop:

1.Remove any debris and dust from the tabletop or workbench, as well as from the surrounding area. Ensure that your path between the GSS and its new location is unobstructed.

2.Place one rubber foot in each corner on the bottom of the GSS. The rubber feet have an adhesive backing. Peel the protective tape off the adhesive and adhere the feet to the bottom of a clean chassis surface.

3.Place the chassis on the tabletop or workbench.

4.Ensure that no exhaust air from other equipment will be drawn into the chassis. Also, ensure that there is adequate clearance at the front and rear of the chassis.
