INSTALLATION

Pre-Installation Guidelines
Place cables away from fluorescent lights, air conditioners, and machines that are likely to generate electrical noise. Place the Switch on a flat, clean, and dry surface. The Switch is not intended for connection to exposed outdoor lines. Ensure that the maximum distance between each computer and the Switch does not exceed 100 ft. for SIMs.
Mechanical loading Mount the equipment in the rack in such a way that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading. Circuit overloading When connecting the equipment to the supply circuit, consider the effect that overloading of circuits might have on over-current protection and supply wiring. Reliable electrical grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Provide attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).
Avoiding general rack-mounting problems
Elevated operating ambient temperature The operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the room ambient when installing into a closed or multiunit rack assembly. Install the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum rated ambient temperature. Reduced airflow Install the equipment in a rack in such a way that the amount of airflow required for safe operation is not compromised. Leave a gap of at least 5cm/2 inches on each side of the Switch.
Rack-mounting the SMB CAT5 Switch
Rack-mount the Switch using the supplied rack-mount kit. The brackets can be placed in two possible positions (see Figure 3).
Place the brackets toward the front of the unit so that the unit can be mounted front facing; or place the brackets toward the rear of the unit so that it can be mounted rear facing on the back of a rack.
