This part describes how to install your Web-Managed Gigabit Ethernet Switch and make
connections to it.

2.1 Installation

The following steps will help prevent damage to the device while also helping to maintain
proper security.
Place the switch on a stable surface or desktop to minimize the chances of falling.
Make sure the switch works in the proper AC input range and matches the voltage
labeled on the switch.
To keep the switch free from lightning damage, do not open the switch's chassis even
if it fails to receive power.
Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate ventilation around
the switch.
Make sure the surface the switch is placed on can support the weight of the switch
and its accessories.

2.1.1 Desktop Installation

When installing the switch on a desktop (if not in a rack), attach the enclosed rubber feet
to the bottom corners of the switch to minimize vibration. Allow adequate space for
ventilation between the device and the objects around it.
