| Installation Guide
to contact any device, cable, object, or person attached to a different electrical ground. Also, never
connect the device to external storm grounding sources.
Perform installation or removal of the chassis or any module in a static-free environment. Proper
use of anti-static body straps and mats is strongly recommended.
Modules must be kept in anti-static packaging when not installed in the chassis.
Do not ship or store this product near strong electromagnetic, electrostatic, magnetic, or
radioactive fields.
Do not disassemble the chassis.
Selecting a Location
The Mobility Master hardware appliance, like other network and computing devices, requires the
following “electronic-friendly” environment:
Reliable power
Verify that your electrical outlet is compatible with the Mobility Master hardware appliance power
supply.
Cool, non-condensing ventilation
For proper operation, the Mobility Master hardware appliance requires an environment with an
ambient air temperature between 0º C and 40º C (32º F and 104º F). Humidity must be kept at non-
condensing levels, between 10% and 90%.
Where a large number of electrical devices are working in the same area, additional air
conditioning or air circulation equipment may be required.
Ample space
For proper air circulation, leave at least 10 cm (4 inches) clearance all around the chassis.
Leave additional space in front and rear side of the chassis to access power cords, network cables,
and indicator LEDs.
Limited electromagnetic interference
For best operation, keep the Mobility Master hardware appliance and all cords and cables at least
0.7 meters (2 feet) from fluorescent lighting fixtures, and 2 meters (6 feet) from photocopiers,
radio transmitters, electric generators, and other sources of strong electromagnetic interference.
Rack Mounting- Standard
This mounting option allows mounting the Mobility Master hardware appliance in a two-post 19-inch
Telco rack.
Required Tools and Equipment
The following tools and equipment are required for installing a Mobility Master hardware appliance:
Mounting Bracket (x2) (included in the kit): Do not use for table or shelf installation
Screws for mounting bracket (x8): M4 x 8 mm Phillips Flat Head Screws (included in the kit)
Screws for system rack mount (x4): M6 x 15 mm Phillips Pan Head Screws (included in the kit)
Each Mobility Master hardware appliance should have its own mounting equipment. Do not place other
networking equipment directly on top of a mounted Mobility Master hardware appliance. Failure to do so can
damage the device.
