Cooling Requirements
Caution: Do not block air vents. Blocking switch air vents may result in the switch
overheating.
Cooling air is drawn into the switch chassis by the fans mounted on the rear of the
chassis. The air is expelled through vents in the front of the chassis. HP
recommends installing the switch so that air intake and exhaust for all components
in the rack is flowing in the same direction.
Power Requirements
One AC power cord connects to the switch. The AC power source must meet
these requirements:
■ A properly wired, earth-grounded AC outlet
■ Voltage capability of 85–264 VAC
■ Input voltage frequency of 47–63 Hz
■ Power capability of 75 watts, maximum
The switch uses a universal power supply capable of functioning worldwide
without voltage jumpers or switches. The power supply is auto ranging in terms of
accommodating input voltages and line frequencies.
