GS748T Smart Switch Hardware Installation Guide Step 1: Preparing the Site Before you install the switch, ensure the operating environment meets the site requirements in the following table. Characteristics Requirements Mounting • Desktop installations - Provide a flat table or shelf surface. • Rackmount installations - Use a 19-inch (48.3-centimeter) EIA standard equipment rack that is grounded and physically secure. The rackmount kit supplied with the switch is also required. Access Locate the switch in a position that allows access to the front-panel RJ-45 ports, view the front-panel LEDs, and access the power connector. Power source Provide a power connection cord. Power specifications for the switch are shown in Appendix A. Ensure the AC outlet is not controlled by a wall switch, which can accidentally turn off power to the outlet and the switch. Environmental • Temperature - Install the switch in a dry area, with ambient temperature between 0 and 40ºC (32ºF and 104ºF). Keep the switch away from heat sources such as direct sunlight, warm air exhausts, hot-air vents, and heaters. • Operating humidity - The installation location should have a maximum relative humidity of 90%, non-condensing. • Ventilation - Do not restrict airflow by covering or obstructing air inlets on the sides of the switch. Keep at least 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) free on all sides for cooling. Be sure there is adequate airflow in the room or wiring closet where the switch is installed. • Operating conditions - Keep the switch at least 6 ft. (1.83 meters) away from nearest source of electromagnetic noise, such as a photocopy machine. Chapter 4: Installation | 21
