Desktop Installation
For desktop or shelf mounting, use the rubber “feet” shipped on a black adhesive strip with the chassis. They protect the chassis
and provide a nonskid surface.
The location of the chassis is extremely important for proper operation. Equipment placed too close together, inadequate
ventilation, and inaccessible panels can cause malfunctions and shutdowns, and can make maintenance difficult. The following
information will help you to plan the location of the chassis:
•Plan for access to both front and rear panels of the chassis.
•Ensure that the room where the chassis operates has adequate ventilation. Remember that electrical equipment generates
heat. Ambient air temperature may not cool equipment to acceptable operating temperatures without adequate ventilation
To attach the rubber feet, take the following steps:
Step1 Locate the rubber feet that shipped with the chassis.
Step2 Place the universal gateway upside-down on a smooth, flat surface.
