Many problems can also be avoided by:
- Leaving a free space (10cm at least) in front of the hub's lateral fan.
- Keeping the hub away from any electromagnetic interference, light
sources, or direct sunlight.
- Making sure that all cables, from node to node, do not exceed the recom-
mended maximum length of 100 meters.
- Checking the quality of the cables and outlets used to connect the hub to
end nodes and to the wall adapter.
- Choosing a location that fits the network's configuration and ensures the
hub's safety.
- Paying attention to the cables' physical path and keeping them clear of any
interference.
