•
16-AWG wire (minimum) for the high-voltage power-supply module
For power source connections, use wires rated for at least 194°F (90°C)

Before installing the switch, verify that these guidelines are met:
Clearance to the cable-side view or the power-supply-side view is such that
•
the LEDs can be easily read.
Cabling is away from sources of electrical noise, such as radios, power lines,
•
and fluorescent lighting fixtures. Make sure that the cabling is away from
other devices that might damage the cables.
Airflow around the switch and through the vents is unrestricted. To prevent
•
overheating, the switch must meet the minimum clearance of 1.75 inches
(4.4 cm) at the top and bottom.
Temperature around the unit does not exceed 140°F (60°C). If the switch is
•
installed in a closed or multirack assembly, the temperature around it might
be higher than normal room temperature.
