# Quick Start Guide

## Getting Started

### Registration

We know you're anxious to mount your new Telos iPort High Density and get it running, but please take a moment to register your product online to activate the warranty and ensure you will get quality support should you have questions regarding installation, operation, or troubleshooting. Visit [http://telosalliance.com/product-registration/](http://telosalliance.com/product-registration/) to register.

### Hardware Installation

The 1RU iPort High Density hardware mounts in a standard 19-inch rack with supplied rack rails. The rear of the unit must be supported. To prevent damage, if the supplied rack rails are not used, a supporting shelf is recommended. Install iPort High Density in a location where cooling fan noise is not an issue.

> [!WARNING]
> **Important** - Please see the User Warnings and Cautions page for important installation and electrical safety information.
