1-2 WS5100 Series Switch System Reference Guide
1.1.1 Physical Specifications
The physical dimensions and operating parameters of the WS5100 Series Switch include:
1.1.1.1 Power Cord Specifications
A power cord is not supplied with the device. Use only a correctly rated power cord certified for the country
of operation
.
1.1.1.2 Power Protection
To best protect the switch from unexpected power surges or other power-related problems, ensure the
system installation meets the following power protection guidelines:
• If possible, use a dedicated circuit to protect data processing equipment. Commercial electrical
contractors are familiar with wiring for data processing equipment and can help with the load balancing
of dedicated circuits.
• Install surge protection. Use a surge protection device between the electricity source and the switch.
• Install an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). A UPS provides continuous power during a power outage.
Some UPS devices have integral surge protection. UPS equipment requires periodic maintenance to
ensure reliability.
1.1.1.3 Cabling Requirements
Two Category 6 Ethernet cables (not supplied) are required to connect the switch to the LAN and the WLAN.
The cables are used with the two Ethernet ports on the front panel of the switch.
The console cable that comes with the switch is used to connect the switch to a computer running a serial
terminal emulator program to access the switch’s Command Line Interface (CLI) for initial configuration.
Initial configuration steps are described in the WS5100 Series Switch Installation Guide.
