Selecting a Location
The S2500, like other network and computing devices, requires an “electronics friendly” environment.

Reliable power. Verify that your electrical outlet is compatible with the S2500 power supplies.

Cool, non-condensing ventilation
For proper operation, the S2500 requires an environment with an ambient air temperature between 0
and 40 ºC (32 to 104 ºF). Humidity must be kept at non-condensing levels between 5 and 95%.
Where a large number of electrical devices are working in the same area, additional air conditioning or
air circulation equipment may be required.

Ample space
For proper air circulation, leave at least 10 cm (4 inches) clearance for the vents on the left, right, front,
and rear of the chassis.
Leave additional space in front of the chassis to access power cords, network cables, and indicator
LEDs.

Limited electromagnetic interference
For best operation, keep the S2500 and all cords and cables at least 0.7 meters (2 feet) from fluorescent
lighting fixtures, and 2 meters (6 feet) from photocopiers, radio transmitters, electric generators, and
other sources of strong electromagnetic interference.
