Step 2: Installation Guidelines

For safe switch installation and operation, it is recommended that you:
Visually inspect the power cord to see that it is secured fully to the AC power connector.
Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation and adequate ventilation around the switch.
Do not place heavy objects on the switch.

Desktop or Shelf Installation

When installing the switch on a desktop or shelf, the rubber feet included with the device must be attached
on the bottom at each corner of the device's base. Allow enough ventilation space between the device and
the objects around it.

Rack Installation

The switch can be mounted in an EIA standard size 19-inch rack, which can be placed in a wiring closet with
other equipment. To install, attach the mounting brackets to the switch's side panels (one on each side) and
secure them with the screws provided (please note that these brackets are not designed for palm size
switches).
