The operating environment is within the ranges listed in
Airflow around the switch and through the vents is unrestricted. Allow at least 3 inches (7.6 cm) of
clearance on all sides and ventilation openings, particularly if you stack the switches or place them

Access to ports is sufficient for unrestricted cabling.
–
The rear-panel power connector is within reach of an AC power receptacle.
–
Temperature around the unit does not exceed 113°F (45°C).
If the switch is installed in a closed environment or in a multirack assembly, the temperature around
it might be greater than normal room temperature.
The heat sinks and the bottom of the switch might be hot to the touch if the switch is operating at
its maximum temperature 113°F (45°C) and is in an environment that exceeds normal room
temperature (such as in a closet, in a cabinet, or in a closed or multirack assembly).
No other items are placed on the top of the switch.
The switch is not wall-mounted with its front panel facing up or sideways. According to safety
regulations, wall-mount the switch with its front panel facing down to prevent airflow restriction
and to provide easier access to the cables.
