C H A P T E R 2 Installing the SA7100/SA7120 Free-Standing or in a Rack

Free-Standing
Installation 1. Attach the provided self-adhesive rubber feet to the SA7100/
SA7120’s bottom.
2. Place the SA7100/SA7120 on a flat surface and make sure that
there is adequate airflow surrounding the unit (allow at least one
inch of air space on all sides).
Network
Connections Use the table below to select and install the appropriate cables. (All
cables must be Category 5 UTP or better.)
NOTE: Use caution
when connecting both of
the SA7100/SA7120’s
network ports to the same
switch, hub, or router.
Doing so creates a
feedback loop that
adversely effects network
bandwidth. 3. Connect the provided power cable to the back of the unit. (There
is no power switch.) Under normal circumstances, the SA7100/
SA7120 requires approximately 30 seconds to boot. When the
boot is complete, the unit’s Power LED is steadily illuminated.
(If the Power LED is not steadily illuminated, see Chapter 9,
“Troubleshooting,” to rectify before proceeding to Step 3.
)
4. The Inline LED should be either steadily illuminated or blinking
(to indicate Inline mode). If it is not, press the Bypass switch on
the device’s front panel to enable Inline mode.
