Selecting a Site
The switch can be installed in a standard 19-inch rack or on a level surface such
as a desktop or bench. When installing the switch, choose a site that:
■ Allows adequate airflow around the switch and its vents
■ Is free of dust and moisture
■ Will maintain an ambient temperature range of 0 - 40º C (32 - 104º F) and a
humidity range of 5 - 95% non-condensing.
■ Has a reliable and earthed (grounded) power supply circuit, preferably
dedicated and filtered.
■ Does not expose cabling to sources of electrical noise, such as radio
transmitters, broadband amplifiers, power lines, electric motors, and
fluorescent fixtures
■ Allows easy access to the switch’s power and cable connections
■ Will allow all related network devices to be connected to the switch
without exceeding maximum cable length limitations. See the AT-9800
Series Hardware Reference for cable length specifications
