Power
Notice
1. The device is a power-required device, it
means, it will not work till it is powered.
If your networks should active all the
time, please consider use a proper UPS
(Uninterrupted Power Supply) for your
device. It will prevent you from network
data loss or network downtime.
2. In some area, installing a surge
suppression device may also help to
protect your chassis from being damaged
by unregulated surge or current to the
converter or the power adapter.
Rack Mount Instructions
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or
multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temper-
ature of the rack environment may be greater than
room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given
to installing the equipment in an environment compat-
ible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma)
specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a
rack should be such that the amount of air flow required
for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the
rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not
achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to
the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit
and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have
on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate
consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be
used when addressing this concern.
E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted
equipment should be maintained. Particular attention
should be given to supply connections other than direct
connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power
strips)."
