Environmental Requirements
This section describes the basic environmental requirements for the EX2500
switch. Make sure the location where you install the switch meets the following
requirements:
Install the switch unit in a dry, clean, well-ventilated area.
Provide adequate space on all sides of the switch unit to ensure proper air flow.
Make sure that an adequate grounded power supply is within reach of the
switch unit.
The switch does not have a power switch and is powered on when you connect
one of the two power cords to an energized AC outlet. You must disconnect the
power cords to power off the switch. Always connect each power cord to a
power source in a location that is quickly and safely accessible.
Make sure that twisted-pair cable is routed away from power lines, fluorescent
lighting fixtures, and other sources of electrical interference.
