Installation and Configuration
The following sections provide general information and specific installation instructions
for installing the SynapSense Intelligent Gateway devices. The diagram below shows
the process flow for a typical installation.
General Installation Guidelines
Be consistent
. All installations should match in appearance where possible (including
centering, location, method for securing
extra wire, etc.).
Be neat
. Ensure installation is straight and
vertical or horizontal as much as possible.
•
Install Gateways on flat, smooth surfaces such as
the tops of server cabinets. Do not install
Gateways in hot aisles or in any location that
violates environmental specifications for the
device.
•
Use adhesive cable clips to keep cable and AC
Power Adapter wires neat and contained.
•
Each Gateway installation location should have a
110/220VAC outlet and an Ethernet port within a
few feet.
•
Ensure Gateway installations are not in areas
where concrete walls, support pillars, large cable
bundles, air ducting, or other metal enclosures
can block the signals at close range.
Keep installation area clean
