14 3.4 Preparing for Installation Switches can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a flat surface. Follow these general precautions when planning your equipment locations and connections. The site needs the following: • Centrally located to the devices you want to link • Near a power outlet. • Constant temperature within 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C) and its humidity within 10% to 90%, non-condensing • Adequate space (approximately 2 in or 5 cm) on all sides for proper air flow • A

16 Warning: Make sure you support the switch until all the mounting screws for each bracket is secured to the equipment rack. Failure to do so could cause the switch to fall, which may result in personal injury or damage to the switch. When installing multiple switches, mount them in the rack, one below the other, in any order. When installation is complete turn to the “Applying Power” section. 3.6.2 Desktop or Shelf Mounting Follow these steps when planning to use the switch on either a desktop

17 3.8 Ethernet Cabling The cables you need are determined by the existing equipment. To ensure proper operation when installing the switch into a network, make sure that the current cables are suitable with either 10/100BaseTX, 10/100/1000BaseT or 1000BaseT operation. Check the following criteria against the current installation of your network: • Cable type: Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables with RJ-45 connectors; Category 3 or better for 10BaseT and Category
