Installation
Before installing the equipment, it is necessary to take the
following precautions:
1.)
If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack
assembly, the environmental temperature around the equipment
must be less than or equal to 60C for 6K32F Series Switches.
2.)
If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack
assembly, adequate airflow must be maintained for proper and
safe operation.
3.)
If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack
system, placement of the equipment must not load unevenly or
overload the rack system.
4.)
If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack
assembly, verify the equipment's power requirements to prevent
overloading of the building/s electrical circuits.
5.)
If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack
assembly verify that the equipment has a reliable and
uncompromised earthing path.
6.)
24vdc, -48vdc, and 125vdc must be installed in restricted
access locations.
7.)
CB-Circuit breaker of 10Amps should shown on top of Rack.
This section describes installation of the Magnum 6K32F Series Switches, as
well as connection of the various Ethernet media types.

Locating Magnum 6K32F Series Switches
The location of a Magnum 6K32F Switch is dependent on the physical layout
of the network. Typically the Switch is placed in a central wiring location where groups
of network devices need to be connected in order to communicate with each other. These
Switches are typically rack mounted in a wiring closet see Section 3.3.2 below), but
because they have rubber feet they can also be installed on a shelf or table top unit. The
compact size allows it to be easily placed in an office or lab area, and it can also be either
shelf of wall-mounted (see Section 3.3.1 below).
Locate an AC receptacle that is within six feet (2 meters) of the intended
Magnum 6K32F site. The rugged metal case of the Magnum 6K32F Series will normally
protect it from accidental damage in a lab or workplace setting. Maintain an open view
of the front to visually monitor the status LEDs. Keep an open area around the unit so
that cooling can occur from the small fans (6K32F / FR) on the left side while the unit is
in operation.
