Site Preparation
Environmental Requirements
The switches have the following environmental and airflow requirements:

specifications table for the chassis. See “OmniSwitch 6560 Chassis Details” on page 3-2.
• Be sure to allow adequate room for proper air ventilation at the front, back, and sides of the switch.
Refer to “Airflow Considerations” on page 2-4 for minimum clearance requirements. No clearance is
necessary at the top or bottom of the chassis.
Electrical Requirements

that proper grounding is available and that the installation meets applicable local and national electrical
codes.
The switches have the following general electrical requirements:
• Each switch requires one grounded electrical outlet for each power supply installed in the chassis.
• For switches using AC power connections, each supplied AC power cord is 2 meters (approx. 6.5 feet).
Do not use extension cords.
