This section includes the basic installation warning statements. Translations of these warning
statementsappear in the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Catalyst 3560 Switch
document that shipped with the switch.
Warning
Onlytrained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this
equipment.Statement 148
Warning
To prevent the switch from overheating, do not operate it in an area that exceeds the
maximum recommended ambient temperature of 113˚F (45˚C). To prevent airflow
restriction,allow at least 3 inches (7.6 cm) of clearance around the ventilation openings.
Statement 17B
•When placing the Catalyst 3560-8PC switch
on a flat horizontal surface without the
magnet, we strongly recommend that you
attachthe rubber feet to the switch. Doing so
helps prevent airflow restriction and
overheating.
•Do not stack switches or place
Catalyst 3560-8PC switches side-by-side,
unless they are separated all around by at
least3 inches (7.6 cm) of clearance from each
other.
•Do not wall-mount the Catalyst 3560-8PC
switchwith its front panel facing up or to the
side. We recommend wall-mounting the
switch with its front panel facing down to
prevent airflow restriction and to provide
easier access to the cables.
•Clearanceto the switch front and rear panels
meets these conditions:
–
Front-panel LEDs can be easily read.
–
Access to ports is sufficient for
unrestricted cabling.
–
AC power cord can reach from the AC
power outlet to the connector on the
switch rear panel.
•Cabling is away from sources of electrical
noise, such as radios, power lines, and
fluorescent lighting fixtures.
•For10/100 ports and 10/100/1000 ports, the
cable length from a switch to an attached
device cannot exceed 328 feet (100 meters).
•For cable lengths for small form-factor
pluggable (SFP) modules, see the
documentation that shipped with the
module.
