circuits on the device. A high temperature is the most undesirable condition, because it accelerates the

aging of insulation materials and significantly lowers reliability and service life of the switch.
For the temperature and humidity requirements of different switch models, see

Cleanness

Dust buildup on the chassis may result in electrostatic adsorption, which causes poor contact of metal

components and contact points, especially when indoor relative humidity is low. In the worst case,
electrostatic adsorption can cause communication failure.

(no visible dust on the tabletop over three days)

NOTE:

The dust diameter is greater than or equal to 5 μm.

The equipment room must also meet strict limits on salts, acids, and sulfides to eliminate corrosion and
premature aging of components, as shown in

EMI

All electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources, from outside or inside of the switch and application

system, adversely affect the switch in a conduction pattern of capacitance coupling, inductance coupling,

electromagnetic wave radiation, or common impedance (including the grounding system) coupling.
To prevent EMI, take the following actions:

If AC power is used, use a single-phase three-wire power receptacle with protection earth (PE) to

filter interference from the power grid.

Keep the switch far away from radio transmitting stations, radar stations, and high-frequency

devices.

Use electromagnetic shielding, for example, shielded interface cables, when necessary.

Route interface cables only indoors to prevent signal ports from getting damaged by over-voltage or

over-current caused by lightning strikes.

Laser safety

The H3C S5830 Switch Series is a line of class 1 laser devices.
