You will need the following tools and equipment (not included) to install the switch into an equipment rack:
• Flat head screwdriver
• Phillips head screwdriver
• Antistatic mat or foam
2.1.3 Power Requirements
The electrical outlet should be located near the switch and be easily accessible. It must also be properly grounded.
Make sure the power source adheres to the following guidelines:
• Power: Auto Switching 90-260 VAC
• Frequency range: 50/60 Hz
2.1.4 Environmental Requirements
The switch must be installed in a clean, dry, dust-free area with adequate air circulation to maintain the following
environmental limits:
• Operating Temperature: 0° to 40°C (32° to 104°F)
• Relative Humidity: 10% to 90% non-condensing
Avoid direct sunlight, heat sources, or areas with high levels of electromagnetic interference. Failure to observe these
limits may cause damage to the switch and void the warranty.
2.1.5 Cooling and Airflow
The IC35516 switches use internal fans for air-cooling. Do not restrict airflow by covering or obstructing air vents on
the sides of the switch.
