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) .
