Some examples of a layout that takes noise into account are given
below.
Separate the area by using partitions or shelves to block the
direct propagation of noise.
Do not install the Switch in frequently used areas (such as in
offices, in meeting rooms, or on desks).
Install the Switch in a corner of the office area.
Install the Switch in a rack.
Avoid installation near windows or other objects that easily reflect
sound.
