• The installation site must maintain a temperature between 0° and 45° Celsius (32° and 113° Fahren-
heit) and not exceed 95 percent maximum humidity (non-condensing) at any time.
• Be sure to allow adequate room for proper air ventilation at the front, back, and sides of the switch.
Refer to “Airflow Considerations” on page 2-4 for minimum clearance requirements. No clearance is
necessary at the top or bottom of the chassis.
Electrical Requirements
Note. Alcatel-Lucent switches must be installed by a professional installer. It is the responsibility of the
installer to ensure that proper grounding is available and that the installation meets applicable local and
national electrical codes.
OmniSwitch 6900 switches have the following general electrical requirements:
• Each switch requires one grounded electrical outlet for each power supply installed in the chassis.
OmniSwitch 6900 switches offer both AC and DC power supply support.
• For switches using AC power connections, each supplied AC power cord is 2 meters (approx. 6.5 feet).
Do not use extension cords.
