Site Environmental Requirements
Planning a proper location for the switch and layout for your equipment rack or
wiring closet is essential for successful system operation. You should install the
switch in an enclosed, secure area, ensuring that only qualified personnel have
access to the switch and control of the environment. Equipment that is placed too
closely together or that is inadequately ventilated can cause system
overtemperature conditions. In addition, poor equipment placement can make
chassis panels inaccessible and difficult to maintain.
