Selecting a Site
TigerSwitch 100 units can be mounted in a standard 19-inch
equipment rack or on a flat surface. Be sure to follow the
guidelines below when choosing a location.
◆
The site should:
•
be at the center of all the devices you want to link and near
a power outlet.
•
be able to maintain its temperature within 0° to 50° C and
its humidity within 5% to 95%, non-condensing
•
provide adequate space (approximately two inches) on all
sides for proper air flow
•
be accessible for installing, cabling and maintaining the
devices
•
allow the status LEDs to be clearly visible
◆
Make sure twisted-pair cable is always routed away from power
lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures and other sources of electrical
interference, such as radios, transmitters, etc.
◆
Make sure that a separate grounded power outlet that provides
100 to 240 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz, is within 8 feet of each device and
is powered from an independent circuit breaker. As with any
equipment, using a filter or surge suppressor is recommended.
