A Safety Information

WARNING!

Read the following safety information thoroughly before installing Extreme Networks products. Failure to follow this safety information can lead to personal injury or damage to the equipment.

Only trained service personnel should perform service to Extreme Networks switches and their components. Trained service personnel have read all related installation manuals, have the technical training and experience necessary to be aware of the hazards to which they are exposed in performing a task, and are aware of measures to minimize the danger to themselves or other persons.

Considerations Before Installing

Consider the following items before installing equipment.

The system is designed to operate in a typical environmentally controlled Telco environment. Choose a site that has the following characteristics:

Temperature- and humidity-controlled, such that the maximum ambient room temperature shall not exceed 40ºC (104ºF)

Clean and free from airborne materials that can conduct electricity.

Well ventilated and away from sources of heat including direct sunlight.

Away from sources of vibration or physical shock.

Isolated from strong electromagnetic fields produced by electrical devices.

Secured, enclosed, and restricted-access, ensuring that only trained and qualified service personnel have access to the equipment.

Establish at least 3 inches clearance on all sides for effective ventilation. Do not obstruct the air intake vent on the front, side, or rear ventilation grills. Locate the system away from heat sources.

Make sure that your equipment is placed in an area that accommodates the power consumption and component heat dissipation specifications.

Make sure that your power supplies meet the site power or AC power requirements of all network equipment.

In regions that are susceptible to electrical storms, we recommend that you plug your system into a surge suppressor.
