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 devices at the bottom and progressively
lighter devices installed above.
Make sure that the power source circuits are properly grounded, then
use the power cord supplied with the switch to connect it to the power
source.
If your installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied
with the switch, be sure to use a power cord displaying the mark of the
safety agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your
country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used
safely with the switch.
When installing the switch, note that the AC outlet should be near the
switch and should be easily accessible in case the switch must be
powered off.
Ensure that the switch does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and
over-current protection. To determine the possibility of overloading the
supply circuits, add together the ampere 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 ampere ratings are usually printed on
the devices near the AC power connectors.
Do not install the switch in an environment where the operating ambient
temperature might exceed 55°C (131°F).
Make sure the air flow around the sides and back of the switch is not
restricted.
Make sure that if no modules are installed in the module slots, the cover
plates are installed to cover the slots. Cover plates are required for safe
operation, and to ensure proper switch cooling.
