ESCRIPTION
The left and right-hand panels of the Switch have heat vents to dissipate heat. Do not block these openings, and
leave at least 6 inches of space at the rear and sides of the Switch for proper ventilation. When choosing a location
for the switch, please keep in mind that without proper heat dissipation and air circulation, system components
might overheat, which could lead to system failure.
