Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation and adequate ventilation around the switch.
Do not place heavy objects on the switch.
Desktop or Shelf Installation
The DGS-1100 series switches come with a strip of four adhesive rubber pads that can be placed on the
bottom of the device to prevent the device from damaging the desktop or shelf it is places on. To attach the
rubber pads, simply remove them from the adhesive strip and stick one pad on each corner on the bottom
panel of the Switch.
