Installation and
Site Requirements
Focus Enhancements recommends that FS-2/2E
units be installed in a restricted access area, such
as an equipment room or closet and the installation
be performed by trained installers.
The units are designed and tested to operate
reliably between +5 - +40C (41 - 104 F).
To maintain this range, consider the following:
Air temperature surrounding the
equipment must remain within the
specified range.
Air flow around the equipment must be
sufficient to maintain proper operating
temperatures
If in doubt about the site temperature, take
measurements to be certain. If measured
temperatures fall outside the defined ambient
temperature range, you must bring the temperature
within the defined range.
Storage temperature for the units must remain
between -20 - +60C (-4 - 140 F).

by 3.47” deep. It is an 2RU chassis featuring front
rack mount ears to be installed into a standard 19”
