❥ The IB cables can be accessed easily.
❥ Water or moisture cannot enter the switch.
❥ The ambient temperature stays between 50° - 113°F (5° - 45° C).
❥ Cabinet doors do not interfere with front-to-back air flow.
The cabinet should have its own switchable power distribution. If the switch has two
power supplies, it is suggested that a cabinet with dual power distribution units is
used.
It is recommended that cabinet anti-tip devices are used. This is especially true if
installing or removing a switch in the upper half of the cabinet when the lower half
is empty.
