Prepare for Router Installation
This article provide guidelines and requirements for preparing your site to install the vEdge 100wm router.
Site Preparation Guidelines
Efficient operation of your vEdge 100wm router requires proper site planning and proper layout of your
equipment rack or wiring closet:
• Ensure that the area around the router is kept free of dust and conductive material.
• Follow appropriate airflow guidelines so that the cooling system functions normally.
• Follow ESD prevention procedures to avoid any damage to the router.
• Install the router in an enclosed, secure area allowing only authorized personnel to access the device.
Environmental Requirements
Install the vEdge 100wm router in a dry, clean, temperature-controlled, and well-ventilated environment:
• Maintain ambient airflow for the router to operate normally. The ambient intake air temperature should
be in the range 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). If the airflow is blocked or if the intake air is too warm,
the router can become overheated.
