Site Preparation
PowerConnect 6200 series switches can be mounted in a standard 48.26-cm (19-inch) rack or left freestanding
(placed on a flat surface). These switches can function as stand-alone switches. They can also be installed as a
stack of switches that function, and are managed, as a single entity.
Before installing the switch or switches, make sure that the chosen installation location meets the following site
requirements:
•
Power
— The switch is installed near an easily accessible 100–250 VAC, 50–60 Hz outlet.
•
Clearance
— There is adequate front and rear clearance for operator access. Allow clearance for cabling,
power connections, and ventilation.
•
Cabling
— The cabling is routed to avoid sources of electrical noise such as radio transmitters, broadcast
amplifiers, power lines, and fluorescent lighting fixtures.
•
Ambient
— The ambient switch operating temperature range is 0 to 45ºC (32 to 113ºF) at a relative
humidity of up to 95 percent, non-condensing.
