Before You Install the Switch...
When you choose a location for the switch, observe the following guidelines:
• Make sure that the switch will be accessible and that the cables can be easily connected.
• Keep cabling away from sources of electrical noise, power lines, and fluorescent lighting
fix
tures.
• Position the switch away from water and moisture sources.
• To ensure adequate air flow around the switch, be
sur
e to provide a minimum clearance of
two inches (50 mm).
• Connect the supplied power cord to the switch’s powe
r port, and plug the other end into an
electrical outlet.
CAUTION: Ma
ke sure you use the power cord that is supplied with the switch. Use of a
different power cord could damage the switch.
Placement Options
Before connecting cables to the Ethernet switch, first you will physically install the Ethernet
switch. Either set the Ethernet switch on its four rubber feet for desktop placement, mount it in
a standard-sized, 19-inch wide for rack-mount placement, or mount it on a wall with the wall-
mount brackets provided.
NOTE: T
he four supplied mounting brackets can be used for either wall mount or rack
mou
nt installations.
Desktop Placement
1. Attach the rubber feet to the recessed areas on the bottom of the Ethernet switch.
2. Place the Ethernet switch on a desktop near an AC power source.
