1.1.1.2 Power Protection
To best protect the switch from unexpected power surges or other power-related problems, ensure the
switch installation meets the following guidelines:
• If possible, use a dedicated circuit to protect data processing equipment. Commercial electrical
contractors are familiar with wiring for data processing equipment and can help with the load balancing
of dedicated circuits.
• Install surge protection. Use a surge protection device between the electricity source and the switch.
• Install an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). A UPS provides continuous power during a power outage.
Some UPS devices have integral surge protection. UPS equipment requires periodic maintenance to
ensure reliability.
1.1.1.3 Cabling Requirements
Two Category 6 Ethernet cables (not supplied) are required to connect the switch to the LAN and WLAN. The
cables are used with the two Ethernet ports on the front panel of the switch.
The console cable included with the switch connects the switch to a computer running a serial terminal
emulator program to access the switch's Command Line Interface (CLI) for initial configuration. An initial
configuration is described within the WS5100 Series Switch Installation Guide shipped with each switch.
