Installing the AsantéBridge 1012

Positioning the AsantéBridge 1012

The AsantéBridge can be positioned on any flat surface (a desktop,
table, or other work surface), or it can be mounted on a wall or in
a rack. There are a few guidelines that should be followed:

❏

Place the unit within six feet of an AC outlet.

❏

The unit must be no more than 100 meters (328 feet)
away from the network devices to be connected via
RJ45 cables.

❏

Leave a two-inch clearance around the ventilation grills.
Normal office temperature and humidity generally suit
this type of equipment. For details, see Appendix B,
“Technical Specifications.”

❏

The location should not be near sources of electrical
interference, such as motors or heavy-current switches.
