Installation Notes
The Switch is suited for use in the office where it can be mounted in a
standard 19-inch equipment rack or placed on desktops. Alternatively, the
system can be rack-mounted in a wiring closet or equipment room. A rack-
mounting and desktop-mounting kit containing mounting brackets and
rubber feet are supplied with the Switch.
When choosing a site for the Switch, consider the following:
♦
The front panel should be readily and visually accessible for cable
connections and LED monitoring. The rear panel should also be
easily accessible for power cable connection.
♦
The cables are away from sources of electrical noise such as motors,
radios, and transmitters. Ensure also that they are not in close
proximity with power lines and fluorescent lighting fixtures.
