Follow these guidelines to ensure proper air flow, and prevent component overheating: ■ To ensure adequate cooling, install the switch with the non-port side, which contains the air intake vents, facing the cool-air aisle. ■ Verify a minimum of 47 cubic feet/minute (79.8 cubic meters/hour) of air flow is available to the air intake vents on the non-port side of the switch. ■ Verify that the ambient air temperature does not exceed 40° Celsius (104° Fahrenheit) while the switch is operating. Caution: Do not block air vents. The switch uses ambient air for cooling. Power Requirements The AC power source must meet these requirements: ■ Primary AC Input 100-240 VAC (switch auto-senses input voltage) 47-63 Hz ■ Correctly wired primary outlet, with circuit protected by a circuit breaker and grounded in accordance with local electrical codes ■ Adequate supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size, as specified by the electrical rating on the switch nameplate ■ Voltage capability of 85-264 VAC ■ Input voltage frequency of 47-63 Hz ■ Power capability of 75 W maximum Rack Mount Checklist Verify that the rack and the area around the rack meets the following requirements: ■ The cabinet must be a standard EIA cabinet. ■ Plan a cabinet space that is 1.5 rack units high (2.6 inches; 6.7 cm), 19 inches (48.3 cm) wide, and at least 23 inches (68.6 cm) deep. ■ Ground all equipment in the cabinet through a reliable branch circuit connection, and maintain ground at all times. Do not rely on a secondary connection to a branch circuit, such as a power strip. 6 SAN Switch Rack Mount Kit Installation Instructions

SAN Switch Rack Mount Kit Installation Instructions
Follow these guidelines to ensure proper air flow, and prevent component
overheating:
To ensure adequate cooling, install the switch with the non-port side,
which contains the air intake vents, facing the cool-air aisle.
Verify a minimum of 47 cubic feet/minute (79.8 cubic meters/hour) of air
flow is available to the air intake vents on the non-port side of the switch.
Verify that the ambient air temperature does not exceed 40
°
Celsius (104
°
Fahrenheit) while the switch is operating.
Caution:
Do not block air vents. The switch uses ambient air for cooling
.
Power Requirements
The AC power source must meet these requirements:
Primary AC Input 100–240 VAC (switch auto-senses input voltage) 47–63 Hz
Correctly wired primary outlet, with circuit protected by a circuit breaker and
grounded in accordance with local electrical codes
Adequate supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size, as specified by the
electrical rating on the switch nameplate
Voltage capability of 85–264 VAC
Input voltage frequency of 47–63 Hz
Power capability of 75 W maximum
Rack Mount Checklist
Verify that the rack and the area around the rack meets the following
requirements:
The cabinet must be a standard EIA cabinet.
Plan a cabinet space that is 1.5 rack units high (2.6 inches; 6.7 cm), 19 inches
(48.3 cm) wide, and at least 23 inches (68.6 cm) deep.
Ground all equipment in the cabinet through a reliable branch circuit
connection, and maintain ground at all times. Do not rely on a secondary
connection to a branch circuit, such as a power strip.
