Warning This unit is intended for installation in restricted access areas. A restricted access area can be accessed only
through the use of a special tool, lock and key, or other means of security. Statement 1017

Rack-Mounting the Chassis

This section describes how to rack-mount the chassis. The universal gateway arrives with 19-inch (48.26-cm) rack-mount
brackets and larger brackets for use with a 23-inch (58.42-cm) or 24-inch (60.96-cm) rack.

The following information will help you plan your equipment rack configuration:
• Enclosed racks must have adequate ventilation. Ensure that the rack is not congested, because each unit generates heat. An
enclosed rack should have louvered sides and a fan to provide cooling air. Heat generated by equipment near the bottom of
the rack can be drawn upward into the intake ports of the equipment above.
