Pre-Installation Guidelines
• Place cables away from fluorescent lights, air conditioners, and
machines that are likely to generate electrical noise.
• Place the Switch on a flat, clean, and dry surface.
• The Switch is not intended for connection to exposed
outdoor lines.
• Ensure that the maximum distance between each computer and
the Switch does not exceed 100 ft. for SIMs.
avoiding general rack-mounting problems
elevated operating ambient temperature
The operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be
greater than the room ambient when installing into a closed or multiunit
rack assembly. Install the equipment in an environment compatible with
the maximum rated ambient temperature.
Reduced airflow
Install the equipment in a rack in such a way that the amount of airflow
required for safe operation is not compromised. Leave a gap of at least
5cm/2 inches on each side of the Switch.
Mechanical loading
Mount the equipment in the rack in such a way that a hazardous
condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit overloading
When connecting the equipment to the supply circuit, consider the
effect that overloading of circuits might have on over-current protection
and supply wiring.
Reliable electrical grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be
maintained. Provide attention to supply connections other than direct
connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).
