Before You Connect to the Network

The site where you install the Switch may greatly affect its performance.
Please follow these guidelines for setting up the Switch.
•
Install the Switch on a sturdy, level surface that can support at
least 3 kg (6.6 lbs) of weight. Do not place heavy objects on the
Switch.
•
The power outlet should be within 1.82 meters (6 feet) of the
Switch.
•
Visually inspect the power cord and see that it is fully secured to
the AC power port.
•
Make sure that there is adequate space for proper heat dissipation
from and adequate ventilation around the Switch. Leave at least
10 cm (4 inches) of space at the front and rear of the Switch for
ventilation.
•
Install the Switch in a fairly cool and dry place for the acceptable
temperature and humidity operating ranges.
•
Install the Switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic field
generators (such as motors), vibration, dust, and direct exposure
to sunlight.
•
When installing the Switch on a level surface, attach the rubber
feet to the bottom of the device. The rubber feet cushion the
Switch, protect the casing from scratches and prevent it from
scratching other surfaces.
