2.2 Installation
When installing the SLM-5650A into a rack enclosure (Figure 2-2):
PROPER GROUNDING PROTECTION IS REQUIRED. The equipment must be connected to
the protective earth connection at all times. It is therefore imperative that the unit is properly
grounded, using the ground stud provided on the unit rear panel, during installation,
configuration, and operation.
PROPER AIR VENTILATION IS REQUIRED. In a rack system where there is high heat
discharge, provide forced-air cooling with top- or bottom-mounted fans or blowers.
Make sure there is adequate clearance inside the enclosure, especially at the side for air
ventilation.
Air temperature inside the rack enclosure should
never exceed 50°C (122°F).

Support, or visit Comtech EF Data’s Web site (www.comtechefdata.com/support.asp).
