Magnum 4K16 Switches Installation and User Guide

(12/05)

3.0Installation

Before installing the equipment, it is necessary to take the following precautions:

1.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack assembly, the environmental temperature around the equipment must be less than or equal to 500C.

2.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack assembly, adequate air flow must be maintained for proper and safe operation.

3.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack system placement of the equipment must not overload or load unevenly the rack system.

4.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack assembly, verify the equipment’s power requirements to prevent overloading of the building/s electrical circuits.

5.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack assembly verify that the equipment has a reliable and uncompromised earthing path.

6.) If the intra-building wiring (cabling) is involved with this product(NEBS), then it is recommended to have shielded cable and the shield is grounded at both ends.

Installation: This section describes installation of the Magnum 4K-Series Switches, as well as connection of the various Ethernet media types.

3.1Locating Magnum 4K16 Switches

The location of a Magnum 4K-Series Switch is dependent on the physical layout of the network. Typically the Switch is placed in a central wiring location where groups of network devices need to be connected in order to communicate with each other. These Switches are typically rack mounted in a wiring closet see Section 3.3.2 below), but because they have rubber feet they can also be installed on a shelf or table top.

Locate an AC receptacle that is within six feet (2 meters) of the intended Magnum 4K- Series site. The rugged metal case of the Magnum 4K-Series will normally protect it from accidental damage in a lab or workplace setting. Maintain an open view of the front to visually monitor the status LEDs. Keep an open area around the unit so that cooling can occur from the small fan on the top of the silicon, while the unit is in operation. See figure below.
