Location Requirements
Install a Switch 4007 in an area that meets the
following requirements:
Ambient (room) temperature: 0 °C to 50 °C (32 °F
to 122 °F). The default internal operating
temperature threshold for the Switch 4007 is
approximately 60 °C (140 °F).
Relative humidity: between 10 and 90 percent,
noncondensing.
The table or rack on which you mount the chassis
supports at least three times the weight of a fully
loaded chassis.
The recommended minimum space that is required
between the front of the chassis and another
vertical surface (such as a rack door) is 8 cm (3 in.).
There is a sufficient amount of space on each side
of the Switch 4007 chassis to accommodate any
cables along the side of the chassis.

There is at least 7 cm (2.76 in.) on each side of the
Switch 4007 chassis to ensure proper cooling in
the chassis.
There is at least 91.4 cm (36 in.) in back of the
chassis to:
Remove and replace power supplies.
Maintain proper cooling.
If the chassis is the first device in your rack, then
mount it about 10.2 cm (4 in.) up from the floor.
The power source is within approximately 2 meters
(6.6 feet) of the location where you plan to install
the Switch 4007.
Each of the power supplies connects to a
dedicated circuit. Do not connect the power
supplies to a power strip.
The surface on which you want to locate the
Switch 4007 chassis is level.
Have the required cables available at your site to
make physical connections in your switch
configuration.
Precautionary Guidelines
Ambient temperature for the Switch 4007 must
not exceed 50 C (122 F).
Safety regulations stipulate that for a Switch 4007
chassis, the table, shelf, or rack on which the
switch rests can support at least 115.65 kg (255
lb), which is three times the weight of a fully
loaded Switch 4007 chassis.
