Preparing the Site

Before you install your switch, be sure your operating environment meets the operating

environment requirements in Table 4-1.

Table 4-1.Site Requirements

Characteristics Requirements

Mounting

Desktop installations: Provide a flat table or shelf surface.

Rack-mount installations: Use a 19-inch (48.3-centimeter) EIA standard equipment rack that is

grounded and physically secure.You also need the rack-mount kit supplied

with your switch.

Access Locate the switch in a position that lets you access the front panel RJ-45

ports, view the front panel LEDs,and access the rear-panel stacking port(s)

and power connector.

Power source Provide a power source within 6 feet (1.8 meters) of the installation

location.Power specifications for the switches are shown in Appendix A. Be

sure the AC outlet is not controlled by a wall switch, which can accidentally

turn off power to the outlet and the switch.

Environmental

Install the switch in a dry area, with ambient temperature between 0 and

Temperature: 40ºC (32 and 104ºF). Keep the switch away from heat sources such as

direct sunlight, warm air exhausts,hot-air vents, and heaters.

Operating humidity: The installation location should have a maximum relative humidity of

90%, non-condensing.

Ventilation: Do not restrict airflow by covering or obstructing air inlets on the sides of

the switch. Keep at least 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) free on all sides for

cooling. Be sure there is adequate airflow in the room or wiring closet where

you intend to install the switch.

Operating conditions: Keep the switch at least 6 ft (1.83 m) away from nearest source of electro

magnetic noise, such as a photocopy machine.

After confirming that your site meets the requirements in Table 4-1, you are ready to

install the switch.
