This chapter discusses information needed to set up the Switch.
Unpacking
Open the shipping carton of the Switch and carefully unpack its contents. The carton should
contain the following items:
♦ One DES-1016D Fast Ethernet Switch
♦ One AC power cord
♦ This User’s Guide on CD-ROM
♦ Four rubber feet with adhesive backing
♦ Two screws with anchors for wall mounting
If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local D-Link Reseller for
replacement.
Setup
The site where you install the DES-1016D Switch may greatly affect its performance. Please
follow these guidelines for setting up the switch.
♦ The power outlet should be within 1.82 meters (6 feet) of the Switch.
♦ Visually inspect the power cord and see that it is fully secured to the AC power port.
♦ Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate ventilation around the
Switch. Leave at least 10 cm of space at the front and rear of the Switch for ventilation.
♦ Install the Switch in a fairly cool and dry place. See Appendix A, “Technical Specifications”
for the acceptable temperature and humidity operating ranges.
♦ Install the Switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic field generators (such as
motors), vibration, dust, and direct exposure to sunlight.
♦ When installing the Switch on a level surface, attach the rubber feet to the bottom of the
device. The rubber feet cushion the Switch, protect the casing from scratches and prevent it
from scratching other surfaces.
