Installing the Hardware

This chapter provides instructions for installing the D-Link DES-3226L switch hardware. The
following sections describe this installation process.

Preparing the Site for Installation

D-Link DES-3226L switches can be mounted in a standard 48.26-cm (19-inch) rack or left
freestanding (placed on a tabletop).
Before installing the switch or switches, make sure that the chosen installation location meets
the following site requirements:
Power — The switch is installed near an easily accessible 100–250 VAC, 50–60 Hz out-
let.
General — The power supply is correctly installed by checking that the LEDs on the front
panel are illuminated.
Clearance — There is adequate frontal clearance for operator access. Allow clearance for
cabling, power connections, and ventilation.
Cabling — The cabling is routed to avoid sources of electrical noise such as radio trans-
mitters, broadcast amplifiers, power lines, and fluorescent lighting fixtures.
Ambient — The ambient switch operating temperature range is 0 to 50ºC (32 to 122ºF) at
a relative humidity of 10 to 90 percent, non-condensing.
