Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Preparation before Installation
2.2 Installation Site Requirements
To ensure the normal working and a prolonged durable life of the equipment, the installation site must meet the following
requirements.
2.2.1 Ventilation Requirements
For the XS-S1960-24GT4SFP-Hseries, you must ensure that sufficient space(10cm distance from both sides and the
back panel of the cabinet) is reserved at the ventilation openings to ensure the normal ventilation. During the jumper
process of the device,prevent the cables from blocking the air intake. Dust the device every three months to avoid
blocking the ventilation openings.
2.2.2 Temperature and Humidity Requirements
To ensure the normal operation and prolong the service life of XS-S1960-24GT4SFP-Hseries, you should keep proper
temperature and humidity in the equipment room.
If the equipment room has temperature and humidity that do not meet the requirements for a long time, the equipment
may be damaged.
In an environment with high relative humidity, the insulating material may have bad insulation or even leak electricity.
Sometimes the materials may suffer from mechanical performance change and metallic parts may get rusted.
In an environment with low relative humidity, however, the insulating strip may dry and shrink. Static electricity may
occur easily and endanger the circuit on the equipment.
In an environment with high temperature, the equipment is subject to even greater harm, as its performance may
degrade significantly and various hardware faults may occur. .
Therefore, the ambient temperature and humidity of the XS-S1960-24GT4SFP-H must meet the requirements listed in
Table 2-1:
Table 2-1 Temperature and Humidity Requirements of the XS-S1960-24GT4SFP-H Series
Temperature
Relative Humidity
0ºC to 50ºC (32ºF to 122ºF)
10% to 90% RH
The requirements for the sampling site of the temperature and humidity in the operating environment of the device
are as follows:
There is no protective plate at the front or back of the equipment rack.
The vertical height is 1.5 m above the floor.
The distance from the front panel of the equipment is 0.4 m.
2.2.3 Cleanness Requirements
Dust poses a severe threat to the running of the equipment. The indoor dust falling on the equipment may be adhered by
the static electricity, causing bad contact of the metallic joint. Such electrostatic adherence may occur more easily when
the relative humidity is low, not only affecting the useful life of the equipment, but also causing communication faults.
Table 2-2 shows the requirements for the dust content and granularity in the equipment room.
