Install OT Security ICP Hardware Appliance

You can either mount the OT Security appliance on a rack or simply place it on top of a flat surface such as a desktop.

Tip: Tenable recommends that you complete the basic configuration and setup described in Set up Tenable Core and OT Security setup wizard at the comfort of your desk, before moving the appliance to a rack or any other remote location.

Rack Mounting

To mount the OT Security appliance on a standard 19-inch rack:

  1. Insert the server unit into an available 1U slot in the rack.

    Note:
    • Make sure that the rack is electrically grounded.
    • Make sure that the cooling fan air intake (located in the back panel) and the air ventilation holes (on the top panel) are not obstructed.

  2. Secure the unit to the rack by fastening the rack-mount brackets (supplied) to the rack frame, using the appropriate screws for rack mounting (not supplied).

  3. Plug in the supplied AC power supply cable to the power supply port in the rear panel and plug this cable to the AC power supply (mains).

Flat Surface

To install the OT Security appliance on a flat surface:

  1. Place the appliance unit on a dry and flat surface (such as a desktop).

    Note:
    • Make sure that the tabletop is flat and dry.
    • Make sure that the cooling fan air intake (at the back panel) and the air ventilation holes (on the top panel) are not obstructed.
    • If you place a unit within a stack of other electrical appliances, make sure there is ample space behind the cooling fan (located in the back panel) to allow proper ventilation and cooling.

  2. Plug in the supplied AC power supply cable to the power supply port in the rear panel and plug this cable to the AC power supply (mains).
