Preventing overheating

• Do not block the vents on the top, bottom or back of the connect module
• Ensure adequate space between all vents and other objects to promote airflow and cooling
• These vents require airflow around the device to keep the circuits from overheating
• A minimum of 2 inches (5 centimeters) clearance around the device is recommended 
• Avoid locations where ambient air reaches temperatures greater than 40^o Celcius 
• Avoid installing the connect module in a confined space
• Avoid rack mounting the device
• Avoid installing close to other devices that generate heat

Vents require a minimum of 2" (5 cm) clearance for airflow around the device to avoid overheating.
