NOTE:
When connecting the RJ45 cable, wear a wrist strap to protect against static electricity.

Examining the installation site
The QX-S6600 Series switches must be used indoors.
Mount your switch in a rack and make sure:
Adequate clearance is reserved at the air inlet and exhaust vents for ventilation.
The rack has a good ventilation system.
Identify the hot aisle and cold aisle at the installation site, and make sure ambient air
flows into the switch from the cold aisle and exhausts to the hot aisle.
Identify the airflow designs of neighboring devices, and prevent hot air flowing out of
the bottom device from entering the top device.
The rack is sturdy enough to support the switch and its accessories.
