2.4 Dangers , Cautions, and Notes Regarding Setup

Below are collected some important messages regarding installation of the GR2000-B
router.
DANGER: Do not put the router on an unstable or uneven surface. Instead, always
place the router on a stable, flat surface to prevent it from falling and
causing a physical damage to equpment or those near the unit.
DANGER: When installing the router on a desk, lay it down horizontally. If you stand it
vertically or lean it against a wall, it can easily fall down and cause a damage
to yourself and the router.
!Caution: Do not block the ventilation slots on the sides of the router. If you block the
ventilation slots, the inside of the router will overheat up and malfunction or
even cause a fire. Secure a space of 70mm from around the ventilation slots.
Do not put objects weighing more than 5 kg (11 lbs.) on the router.
Otherwise, you can damage the router, or cause it to fall.
!Caution: When working around the router, wear a wrist strap to prevent static
electricity discharge. Without a wrist strap, the GR2000-B might be damaged
due to static electricity.

Note: Place the GR2000-B in a position where you can easily check the condition of the
front panel indicators.
- Protect cables by running them through a duct or by using a braid. Especially
for optical fiber cables, a cord bend radius of at least 100 mm in length and 50 mm
in breadth and a metal braid are necessary to protect them.
- For optical fiber cables, leave a 3 m length of cable for maintenance. Wind the
rest of the cable and store it near the GR2000-B. If an optical fiber cable and other
types of interface cables coexist, do not stress the optical fiber cable, since it can
break.
