The authority responsible for the location controls access to the restricted area.
Ensure that the area where you install your switch meets the following safety requirements:
• Near an adequate power source. Connect the switch to the appropriate branch circuit protection according to your local electrical
codes.
• Switch environmental temperature range is from 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F).
• Relative humidity is from 5 to 85 percent non-condensing.
• In a dry, clean, well-ventilated, and temperature-controlled room, away from heat sources such as hot air vents or direct sunlight.
• Away from sources of severe electromagnetic noise.
• Inside the restricted access area, positioned in a rack or cabinet, or on a desktop with adequate space in the front, back, and sides for
proper ventilation and access.
• Install the switch in Information Technology Rooms in accordance with Article 645 of the National Electrical Code and NFPA 75.
