Installation
Site Preparation
Note
Before installing the
AT-4016F Ethernet Switch with ATM Access
, read the
“Electrical Safety and Installation Requirements” on page i.
Location
The AT-4016F can be installed on a shelf, in a desktop chassis, or in a
19-inch rack which ATI has designated Model AT-31C1.
Ventilation
The installation site must have adequate ventilation to provide an
operating environment consistent with an ambient temperature range of 0
to 40
o
C and a maximum 80% of non-condensing humidity. While the
AT-4016F has internal fans to aid in cooling, for the fans to function
correctly, you must provide 50 to 75 mm (2 to 3 in.) clearance around the
ventilation openings. The ventilation louvers are located on the sides of
the AT-4016F housing.
Power
Power connections for each system should be able to provide 100-120
watts at 100-120/200-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 2.0/1.0 Amp.
Since a reliable power source is a critical component of your network, ATI
recommends your network components be installed on a dedicated power
circuit. That is, dedicated power circuits or power conditioners tend to
isolate network equipment from electrical-power noise, surges and
interruptions.
