Installing the Switch 408
Installation Procedures
5. Connect the network devices. Using the appropriate network
cables, connect computers, servers, printers and other periph-
erals, and other network devices including other switches, hubs,
or routers to the switch ports. See page 2-9.
At this point, the switch is fully installed and your network should be
up and running. See the rest of this chapter if you need more detailed
information on any of these installation steps.
Installation Precautions
Follow these precautions when installing your Switch 408:
Cautions
■ Make sure you use the power adapter supplied with the
switch to connect it to an AC power source.
■ When installing the switch, since the unit does not have
an On/Off power switch, an AC power outlet must be
located near the switch and should be easily accessible
in case the switch needs to be powered off.
■ Make sure the switch does not overload the power
circuits, wiring, and over-current protection. To deter-
mine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits,
add together the amperage ratings of all devices installed
on the same circuit as the switch and compare the total
with the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum
amperage ratings are usually printed on the devices near
the AC power connectors or power adapter connectors.
■ Do not install the switch in an environment where the
operating ambient temperature might exceed 40°C
(104°F).
■ Make sure the air flow around the sides of the switch is
not restricted.
