Installation Location
Before installing the switch, plan its location and orientation relative to other
devices and equipment:
■
In the front of the switch, allow at least 7.6 cm (3 inches) of space for the
twisted-pair and fiber-optic cabling.
■ In the back of the switch, allow at least 10.2 cm (4 inches) of space for the
power cord and cooling.
■ On the sides of the switch, leave at least 7.6 cm (3 inches) for cooling.
