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. Be reminded that without
proper heat dissipation and air circulation, system components might overheat, which could lead to system failure
