Installation Guidelines

This section will discuss the hardware installation guidelines that the user must follow in

order to properly and safely install this switch into the appropriate environment.

 Visually inspect the power cord and see that it is fully secured to both the power

connector, on the Switch, and the electrical outlet that supplies power.

 Install the Switch in a fairly cool and dry place within the acceptable operating

temperature and humidity ranges.

 Install the Switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic field generators such as

motors, vibration, dust, and direct exposure to sunlight.

Installing the Switch without a Rack

This section is used to guide the user through installing the Switch in an area other than a

switch rack. Attach the included rubber feet to the bottom of the Switch. Take note that

there should be marked blocks on the bottom of the Switch to indicate where to attach the

rubber feet. These markings are usually found in each corner on the bottom of the device.

The rubber feet cushion the Switch, protecting the casing from scratches and preventing it

from scratching other surfaces.
