• Use a vinyl floor covering in your wiring closet. (Concrete floors accumulate dust, and carpets can
cause static electricity.)
• Prevent unauthorized access to wiring closets by providing door locks. Install the equipment in a
secured, enclosed, and restricted-access area, ensuring that only qualified service personnel have
access to the equipment.
• Provide adequate overhead lighting for easy maintenance.
• Ensure that each wiring closet has a suitable ground. All distribution racks and equipment installed
in the closet should be grounded.
• Ensure that all system environmental requirements are met, such as ambient temperature and
humidity.
NOTE
Extreme Networks recommends that you consult an electrical contractor for commercial building and
wiring specifications.
