General Installation Guidelines
Installation Precautions
Be sure to follow the guidelines below when choosing a location.
◆
The installation location should:
be able to maintain its temperature within 0 to 50 °C (32 to 122 °F) and its
■
humidity within 10% to 90%, non-condensing.
provide adequate space (approximately five centimeters or two inches) on
■
all sides for proper air flow.
be accessible for installing, cabling and maintaining the device.
■
allow the status LEDs to be clearly visible.
■
◆
Make sure twisted-pair cable is always routed away from power lines,
fluorescent lighting fixtures and other sources of electrical interference, such as
radios and transmitters.
◆
Make sure that the unit is connected to a separate grounded power outlet and
is powered from an independent circuit breaker. As with any equipment, using
a filter or surge suppressor is recommended. Verify that the external power
requirements for the switch can be met as listed under
page
27.
Warning:
This switch uses lasers to transmit signals over fiber optic cable. The
lasers are compliant with the requirements of a Class 1 Laser Product and are
inherently eye safe in normal operation. However, you should never look directly at
a transmit port when it is powered on.
Warning:
When selecting a fiber SFP device, considering safety, please make sure
that it can function at a temperature that is not less than the recommended
maximum operational temperature of the product. You must also use an approved
Laser Class 1 SFP transceiver.
Caution:
Before installing your switch, first review all the safety statements and
guidelines in the Regulatory and Safety Information document.
Caution:
Installing the switch in a rack requires two people: One should position
the switch in the rack, while the other secures it using the mounting screws.
Caution:
The earth connection must not be removed unless all supply
connections have been disconnected.
