Consider the following before installing the BitStorm™ 4800:
Installation Site
Your installation site should be well ventilated, clean, and free of
environmental extremes.
Installation Options
The BitStorm 4800 may be:

a 535 mm (21
″
) ETSI or 610 mm (24

As many BitStorm 4800 units may be mounted in a standard rack as there
are 44.45 mm (1.75

provided.
— Mounted vertically against a wall.
The standard mounting brackets provided can be fastened to the base of
the unit for wall mounting.

Up to eight BitStorm 4800 units may be stacked on a shelf or desktop.

A 4800 or 4804 Management Module must be installed in each BitStorm 4800.

The BitStorm 4800 operates from a standard AC power supply (90 to
264 VAC at 47 to 63 Hz).
