Site Requirements
Make sure you observe the following site requirements:
❑ Make sure you are placing the switch in a dust-free and moisture-free
environment.
❑ Do not block ventilation openings on the unit. Allow at least 10 cm
(4 in) of space at the front and back of the unit for ventilation.
❑ Make sure that the switch’s power is accessible and cables can be
connected easily.
❑ Cabling should be away from sources of electrical noise such as radios,
transmitters, broadband amplifiers, power lines, and fluorescent
fixtures.
❑ Do not place objects on top of the switch.
❑ Use dedicated power circuits or power conditioners to supply power to
the switch.
Desktop Installation
Place the switch on the desktop using these steps, or perform the steps “Wall-
Mount Installation” on page 9 or perform the steps “Rack-Mount Installation
(AT-FS708 only)” on page 10. The AT-FS708 (only) can be stacked two or more
devices high on the desktop as described in the steps below.
1. Attach the four self-adhesive rubber feet to the bottom of the switch,
positioning them in the indentations.
2. Place the switch on a flat, level surface where power is easily accessible.
3. To stack more than one switch (for the AT-FS708 only), repeat step 1 for
the additional switches before stacking them. The rubber feet cushion the
switch against shock and vibration and provide space between each switch
for ventilation.
Warning
The power cord is used as a disconnecting device. To de-energize
equipment, disconnect the power cord.
