SteelConnect Gateway Hardware Installation Guide (SDI-130, SDI-330, SDI-1030)
Installing the SteelConnect Gateways
Required tools and equipment
If the appliance exhibits unexpected behavior, such as smoking or becoming extremely hot,
disconnect it from the power source immediately and then obtain service assistance.
Environmental considerations
The following is a list of environmental considerations that will ensure safe and efficient operations of
the appliance:
Ensure that the appliance has at least 12 inches of clearance on all sides to allow for proper
ventilation. The appliance generates heat and requires adequate circulation to maintain proper
operating temperatures. Never cover or obstruct the appliance ventilation slots.
Do not position the appliance near high-powered radio transmitters or electrical equipment, such
as electrical motors or air conditioners. Interference from electrical equipment can cause
intermittent failures.
Do not install the appliance in areas where condensation, water, or other liquids may be present.
These may cause safety hazards and equipment failure.
Required tools and equipment
You need the following tools and equipment to mount the SteelConnect SDI-130 and SDI-130W:
A power drill
The mounting kit that ships with your gateway
You need the following tools and equipment to mount the SteelConnect SDI-330 and SDI-1030 in a rack:
A standard server-type rack
A standard Phillips screwdriver
The rack-mount kit that ships with your gateway
Mounting the SDI-130 and SDI-130W gateways
The SDI-130 and SDI-130W gateways can be mounted to a wall or ceiling using the snap disk. If a solid
mount is not required, the gateways can be used as a tabletop unit. Distance from the gateway to the
power supply source should be considered before mounting.
The gateway ships with a snap disk, screw, and drywall anchor. Supply the gateway with power by either
using the power supply or a Power over Ethernet (PoE). Attach the power to the gateway before
mounting it.
To mount the SDI-130 and SDI-130W gateways to a wall or ceiling
1.
Use a power drill to drill pilot holes for the dry wall anchor. Insert the drywall anchor into the pilot
hole.
2.
Place the snap disk over the drywall anchor. Secure the snap disk to the wall by driving the screw
into the drywall anchor.
