Examining the installation site The router must be used indoors. To ensure correct operation and long service life of your router, the installation site must meet the following requirements. Temperature and humidity You must maintain a compliant temperature and humidity in the equipment room. • Lasting high relative humidity tends to cause poor insulation, electricity creepage, mechanical property change of materials, and corrosion of metal parts.
Cooling system The MSR1000 router adopts left to right airflow for heat dissipation. Figure 1 Airflow through the MSR1000 chassis To ensure good ventilation, the following requirements must be met: • Leave at least 10 cm (3.94 in) of clearance at the air inlet and outlet vents. • The installation site has a good cooling system. ESD prevention CAUTION: Check the resistance of the ESD wrist strap for safety.
EMI Electromagnetic interference (EMI) might be coupled from the source to the router through the following coupling mechanisms: • Capacitive coupling • Inductive coupling • Radiative coupling • Common impedance coupling • Conductive coupling To prevent EMI, take the following actions: • Take effective measures to reduce interference from the power grid system. • Separate the router grounding equipment from grounding and lightning protection equipment of other devices as far as possible.

Installing the router Mounting the router on a workbench IMPORTANT: • Allow 10 cm (3.94 in) of clearance around the chassis for heat dissipation. • Do not place heavy objects on the router. To mount the router on a workbench: 1. Make sure the workbench is clean, stable, and correctly grounded. 2. Place the router upside down on the workbench and attach the rubber feet to the four round holes in the chassis bottom. Figure 3 Attaching the rubber feet 3.
To install the router in a rack: 1. Use a mounting bracket to mark the positions of cage nuts on the front rack posts, making sure the cage nuts on the two front rack posts are at the same level. Figure 5 Marking the positions of cage nuts 2. Insert one edge of a cage nut into the hole. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to compress the other edge of the cage nut, and then push the cage nut fully into the hole. 3. Repeat step 3 to install other cage nuts to all the marked positions on the front rack posts.
Figure 6 Installing cage nuts 4. Attach the mounting brackets to the two sides of the chassis and fasten the screws. Figure 7 Attaching the mounting brackets 5. Place the chassis on the rack and use M6 screws to attach the mounting brackets to the rack posts.
Figure 8 Securing the router to the rack Grounding the router WARNING! Correctly connecting the router grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and EMI protection. IMPORTANT: The resistance reading should be smaller than 5 ohms between the chassis and the ground. Grounding the router through the rack IMPORTANT: Make sure the rack is correctly grounded before grounding the router. To connect the grounding cable: 1. Remove the grounding screw from the grounding hole at the rear of the chassis.
4. Use needle-nose pliers to bend a hook at the other end of the grounding cable, attach it to the grounding post, and reinstall the hex nut. See Figure 9.
1 2 Grounding the router with a grounding strip If a grounding strip is available at the installation site, connect the grounding cable to the grounding strip. Follow the same procedures in "Grounding the router through the rack" to connect the grounding cable.
Figure 10 Grounding the router with a grounding strip 1 2 Grounding the router with a grounding conductor buried in the earth ground If the installation site has no grounding strips, but earth ground is available, hammer a 0.5 m (1.64 ft) or longer angle iron or steel tube into the earth ground to serve as a grounding conductor. The steel tube must be zinc-coated. Weld the yellow-green grounding cable to the angel iron or steel tube and treat the joint for corrosion protection.
