NETGEAR XS708T Hardware Installation Guide

Step 1: Prepare the Site
Before you install the switch, make sure that the operating environment meets the site requirements that
are listed in the following table.
Table 4. Site requirements
RequirementsCharacteristics
Desktop installations. Provide a flat table or shelf surface.
Rack-mount installations. Use a 19-inch (48.3-centimeter) EIA standard equipment rack
that is grounded and physically secure.You also need the rack-mount kit that is supplied
with the switch.
Mounting
Locate the switch in a position that allows you to access the front panel ports, view the front
panel LEDs, and access the power connector on the back panel.
Access
Use the AC power cord that is supplied with the switch. Make sure that the AC outlet is not
controlled by a wall switch, which can accidentally turn off power to the outlet and the switch.
Power source
Route cables to avoid sources of electrical noise such as radio transmitters, broadcast
amplifiers, power lines, and fluorescent lighting fixtures.
Cabling
Temperature. Install the switch in a dry area with an ambient temperature between 32ºF
and 122ºF (0ºC and 50ºC). Keep the switch away from heat sources such as direct sunlight,
warm-air exhausts, hot-air vents, and heaters.
Operating humidity.The maximum relative humidity of the installation location must not
exceed 90 percent, noncondensing.
Ventilation. Do not restrict airflow by covering or obstructing air inlets on the sides of the
switch. Keep at least 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) free on all sides for cooling. The room or
wiring closet in which you install the switch must provide adequate airflow.
Operating conditions. Keep the switch at least 6 feet (1.83 meters) away from the nearest
source of electromagnetic noise, such as a photocopy machine.
Environmental
Step 2: Protect Against Electrostatic Discharge
WARNING:
Static electricity can harm delicate components inside your system.To prevent
static damage, discharge static electricity from your body before you touch
any of the electronic components, such as the microprocessor.You can do
so by periodically touching an unpainted metal surface on the switch.
You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD):
