Wiring Requirements
：
Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or
wiring your Ethernet Switch.
Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and
common wire. Observe all electrical codes dictating the
maximum current allowable for each wire size. If the current
goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat may
causing serious damage to your equipment. You should also pay
attention to the following items:
1. Use separate path to route wiring for power and devices. If
power wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure
the wires are perpendicular at the intersection point.
2. NOTE: Do not run signal or communications wiring and
power wiring in the same wire conduit. To avoid interference,
wires with different signal characteristics should be routed
separately.
3. You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to
determine which wires should be kept separate. The rule of
thumb is that wiring that shares similar electrical
characteristics can be bundled together.
4. Keep input and output wiring separated. It is strongly advised
