Hardware Installation
This chapter describes how to set up the Freeway communications server and connect
it to the network.
Step 1:
Review the safety guidelines in the “Safety Precautions” section on page 15.
Step 2:
Place your Freeway in the selected location. It can be installed in any standard 19-inch
rack. It can also be set on a table top where it will occupy about three square feet. There
should be room to set a monitor nearby and enough clearance to ensure that the air
vents will not be blocked.
The Freeway must be near a three-wire electrical outlet that supplies single-phase
power. At U.S. sites, 115V AC is required. Outside the U.S., check the Freeway’s voltage
rating. Step 7 on page 39 describes how to change the voltage rating if necessary. It must
also be near the LAN and WAN connectors that will be plugged into it.
Be sure the location meets the following environmental standards:
• Operating temperature: 32° – 122° F (0° – 50° C)
• Humidity between 5% and 80% (relative non-condensing)
• Altitude between 0 and 10,000 feet (0–3048 meters)
• Good ventilation
• Little or no dust
