Mounting the Switch
This switch can be placed directly on your desktop, or mounted in a rack.
Before you start installing the switch, make sure you can provide the right operating environment, including power requirements, sufficient physical space, and proximity to other network devices that are to be connected. Verify the following installation requirements:
•Power requirements: 100 to 240 VAC (± 10%) at 50 to 60 Hz (± 3Hz). The switch’s power supply automatically adjusts to the input voltage level.
•The switch should be located in a cool dry place, with at least 10 cm. (4 in.) of space on the sides for ventilation.
•Place the switch out of direct sunlight, and away from heat sources or areas with a high amount of electromagnetic interference.
•If you intend to mount the switch in a rack, make sure you have all the necessary mounting screws, brackets, bolts and nuts, and the right tools.
•Check if network cables and connectors needed for installation are available.
Stacking Switches on a Flat Surface
