Installing the Z-Plex

2.5Locating the product on a desktop

Each unit can be easily set on top of a desk or table. A stable environment is necessary for peak performance of each unit. The chassis should be placed on a flat, smooth surface, such as a table, that is free of contaminants. This surface should be capable of supporting a fully equipped chassis. Be sure to allow enough clearance above and below the chassis for proper air circulation. The metal brackets and feet furnished with the chassis must be used for this purpose.

2.6Wall mounting

Prior to wall mounting check to see if the environment is stable and free from any extreme temperatures, humidity or vibrations of any sort. The unit should be mounted with the fan to the top with at least 2 inches of clear space on the sides, above, and below for adequate air flow. Allow at least 6 inches for cable clearance.

When attaching unit(s) to a wall make sure that appropriate fasteners such as masonry anchors, heavy duty wood screws or expansion bolts are used for heavy objects.

Note: Additional support hardware may be necessary (not included with unit) to secure the unit properly to the wall. If the surface is not solid enough to hold the unit and attached cabling, it is recommended that a small piece of 3/4” plywood be fastened to the wall before attaching the unit. This will help ensure a more stable environment.
