3.1 PREPARING THE INSTALLATION SITE
Before you install the device, be sure your operating environment meets the operating environment requirements listed below.
Power source:
Provide a power source within 6 feet (1.8 meters) of the installation location. Power specifications for the Hardened Unmanaged
Switch are shown in Chapter 1, Specifications.
Environment:
Install the Hardened Unmanaged Switch in a dry area, with ambient temperature between -14 and +140º F (-10 and +60° C).
The installation location should have a maximum relative humidity of 95%, non-condensing.
Do not restrict airflow by covering or obstructing the top and side panels of the Hardened Unmanaged Switch. Keep at least 2 inches
(5.08 centimeters) free on all sides for cooling.
3.2 INSTALLATION STEPS
ST E P 1: Install the unit on the DIN rail. Place the switch on the DIN rail from above using the slot. Push the front of the switch
toward the mounting surface until it audibly snaps into place.

STEP 5: Grounding the Unit
CAUTION: This equipment is designed to permit the connection of the grounded conductor of the DC supply circuit to the grounding
conductor at the equipment.
For power connection, the following conditions must be met:
• This equipment must be connected directly to the DC supply system grounding electrode conductor or to a bonding jumper from a
grounding terminal bar or bus to which the DC supply system grounding electrode conductor is connected.
• This equipment must be located in the same immediate area (such as, adjacent cabinets) as any other equipment that has a
connection between the grounded conductor of the same DC supply circuit and the grounding conductor, and also the point of
grounding of the DC system. The DC system should not be
grounded elsewhere.
• The DC supply source must be located within
the same premises as the equipment.
• Switching or disconnecting devices will not be in the grounded circuit conductor between the DC source and the point of
connection of the grounding electrode conductor.

APPENDIX A: REGULATORY INFORMATION
A.1 FCC STATEMENT
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy, and if not installed and used
properly, that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference to radio communication. It has
been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart
B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference when the equipment is
operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference, in which
case the user at his own expense will be required to take whatever measures may be necessary to correct
the interference.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment.
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emission from digital apparatus set out in the Radio
Interference Regulation of Industry Canada.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables aux appareils numériques de
la classe A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique publié par Industrie Canada.
