Mounting
The NCT240 may be mounted on any flat surface, such as a shelf, or in a rack. Before you start
installing the access switch, make sure you can provide the right operating environment,
including power requirements, sufficient physical space, and proximity to other network devices
that are to be connected. Verify the following installation requirements:
•
Power requirements: 100 to 240 VAC (± 10%) at 50 to 60 Hz (± 3 Hz). The access switch power
supplies automatically adjust to the input voltage level. Make sure that a properly grounded
power outlet is within 2.5 m (8 ft) of the access switch.
•
The access switch should be located in a cool dry place, with at least 10 cm (4 in.)of space on
the sides for ventilation.
• Place the access switch out of direct sunlight, and away from heat sources or areas with a high
amount of electromagnetic interference. The temperature and humidity should be within the
ranges listed in the specifications.
• If you intend to mount the access switch in a rack, make sure you have all the necessary
mounting screws, brackets, bolts and nuts, and the right tools.
• Check if network cables and connectors needed for installation are available.
• Be sure the
access switch is within reach of the punch-down blocks for rear panel connections
that include DSL and splitter interface.
