Before You Connect to the Network
The site where you install the Switch may greatly affect its
performance. Please follow these guidelines for setting up the
Switch.
•
Install the Switch on a sturdy, level surface that can
support at least 6.6 pounds (3 kg) of weight. Do not place
heavy objects on the Switch.
•
The power outlet should be within 6 feet (1.82 meters) of
the Switch.
•
Visually inspect the power cord and see that it is fully
plugged in and secured to the AC power port.
•
Make sure that the Switch is allowed proper heat
dissipation and adequate ventilation. Leave at least 4 inches
(10 cm) of space at the front and rear of the Switch for
ventilation.
•
Install the Switch in a fairly cool and dry place for the
acceptable temperature and humidity operating ranges.
•
Install the Switch in a site free from strong
electromagnetic field generators (such as motors), vibration,
dust, and direct exposure to sunlight.
•
When installing the Switch on a level surface, attach the
rubber feet to the bottom of the device. The rubber feet
cushion the Switch, protect the casing from scratches and
prevent it from scratching other surfaces.
