•
Observe extension cable and power strip ratings. Make sure that the total
ampere rating of all products plugged into the extension cable or power strip
does not exceed 80 percent of the ampere ratings limit for the extension cable
or power strip.
•
To help protect your system from sudden, transient increases and decreases in
electrical power, use a surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible
power supply (UPS).
•
Position system cables and power cables carefully; route cables so that they
cannot be stepped on or tripped over. Be sure that nothing rests on any cables.
•
Do not modify power cables or plugs. Consult a licensed electrician or your
power company for site modifications.
•
Always follow your local and national wiring rules.
•
Move products with care; ensure that all casters and stabilizers are firmly
connected to the system. Avoid sudden stops and uneven surfaces.

Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge
You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic
discharge (ESD):
1.
When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, leave
it in the antistatic package until you are ready to install it. Just before
unwrapping the antistatic package, discharge static electricity from your body.
2.
Before moving a sensitive component, place it in an antistatic container or
package.
3.
Handle all sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic
floor pads, workbench pads, and an antistatic grounding strap.
Unpacking the Hardware
Check the contents of the boxes to make sure that all items are present before
beginning the installation.
1.
Place the container on a clean flat surface and cut all straps securing the
container.
2.
Unpack the hardware from the boxes.
Carefully remove the hardware and place it on a secure and clean surface. See
“Select a Location” on page 3-3.
3.
Remove all packing material.
Warning:
Static electricity can harm delicate components inside your
system. To prevent static damage, discharge static electricity
from your body before you touch any of the electronic
components, such as the microprocessor. You can do so by
periodically touching an unpainted metal surface on the
switch.

Hardware Installation
v1.0, March 2006
The site where you install the switch may greatly affect its performance. Before
installing the switch or switches, make sure that the chosen installation location
meets the following site requirements.
Table 3-1. Site Requirements for Switch Location
Requirements
Mounting
•
Desktop Installations: Provide a flat table or shelf surface.
•
Rack-mount Installations: Use a 19-inch (48.3-centimeter) EIA
standard equipment rack that is grounded and physically
secure. You need the rack-mount kit supplied with your switch.
Access
Locate the switch in a position that enables you to access the
front panel RJ-45 ports, view the front panel LEDs, and access
the rear-panel power connector.
Power source
Provide a power source within 6 feet (1.8 meters) of the
installation location. Power specifications for the switch are
shown in Appendix A, “Technical Specifications”. Be sure that
the AC outlet is not controlled by a wall switch, which can
accidentally turn off power to the outlet and the switch.
Environment
Install the switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic field
generators (such as motors), vibration, dust, and direct
exposure to sunlight.
Temperature
The ambient switch operating temperature range is 32º to 104ºF
(0º to 40ºC). Keep the switch away from heat sources such as
direct sunlight, warm air exhausts, hot-air vents, and heaters.
Operating humidity
Install the switch in a dry area with a maximum relative humidity
of 90%, noncondensing.
Ventilation
Do not restrict airflow by covering or obstructing air inlets on the
sides of the switch. Keep at least 2 inches (5.08 centimeters)
free on all sides for cooling. Be sure that there is adequate
airflow in the room or wiring closet where you intend to install the
switch.
Cabling
Route the cable to avoid sources of electrical noise such as
radio transmitters, broadcast amplifiers, power lines, and
fluorescent lighting fixtures.
