Installing the indoor equipment

System pre-installation

Together, the receive modem, the transmit modem, and the
Gateway are called the DW4020 and sometimes referred to as the
indoor unit (IDU). The receive modem is also called the IRU; the
transmit modem is also called the ITU; and the Gateway is
sometimes called the GWH.

The three units must be stacked correctly to ensure proper heat
dissipation. The receive modem must be installed on top of the
transmit modem, which is in turn installed on top of the Gateway.
See Figure 10 on page 15.
