General Installation
This chapter presents step-by-step installation instructions for this eight-
port Ethernet Switch.
Selecting a Site for the Switch
As with any electronic device, you should place the Switch where it will not
be subjected to extreme temperatures, humidity, or electromagnetic
interference. Specifically, the site you select should meet the following
requirements:
• The room temperature should be between 32 and 104 degrees
Fahrenheit (0˚- 40˚ Celsius).
• The relative humidity should be less than 90%, non-condensing.
• Surrounding electrical devices should not exceed the electromagnetic
field (RFC) standards for IEC 801-3, Level 2 (3V/M) field strength.
• Make sure that the switch receives adequate ventilation. Do not block
the ventilation holes on the side of the switch or the fan exhaust port
on the rear of the switch.
• The power outlet should be within 1.8 meter (6 feet) of the switch.
