General Installation Recommendations

Mechanical Loading

Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to
uneven mechanical loading.

Circuit Overloading

Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that
overloading of the circuit might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate
consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

Reliable Earthing

Reliable earthing of rack-mount 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).

General Table-Mounting Guidelines

OmniSwitch 6350 switches can be installed freestanding as tabletop-mounted units. If you will be table-
mounting your switch(es), refer to the important guidelines below before installing.
• When choosing a location for the switch, be sure that adequate clearance has been provided for chassis
airflow and access to the front, back, and sides of the chassis. For recommended clearances, refer to
"Airflow Recommendations" on page
The power cord measures two (2) meters (approximately 6.5 feet) in length. When table mounting the
•
switch, be sure that the mounting location is within the reach of all the required power sources.
