Installation Precautions:

Follow these precautions when installing your Switch 408.
Cautions
I
Make sure that you use the power adapter supplied with
the switch to connect it to an AC power source.
When installing the switch, since the unit does not have
I
an On/Off power switch, an AC power outlet must be
located near the switch and should be easily accessible
in case the switch needs to be powered off.
Make sure that the switch does not overload the power
I
circuits, wiring, and over-current protection. To deter-
mine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits,
add together the amperage ratings of all devices installed
on the same circuit as the switch and compare the total
with the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum
amperage ratings are usually printed on the devices near
the AC power connectors or power adapter connectors.
Do not install the switch in an environment where the
I
operating ambient temperature might exceed 55 ° C
(131 ° F).
Make sure the air flow around the sides of the switch is
I
not restricted.
If you rack mount the Switch 408 (using the mounting kit,
I
5183-7210), the rack or cabinet should be adequately
secured to prevent it from becoming unstable and/or
falling over. Devices installed in a rack or cabinet should
be mounted as low as possible, with the heaviest device
at the bottom and progressively lighter devices installed
above.
