Installation
This chapter gives step-by-step instructions about how to
install the switch:
Selecting a Site for the Switch
As with any electric device, you should place the switch
where it will not be subjected to extreme temperatures,
humidity, or electromagnetic interference. Specifically, the
site you select should meet the following requirements:
The ambient temperature should be between 0 to 45
degrees Celsius.
The relative humidity should be less than 95 percent,
non-condensing.
Surrounding electrical devices should not exceed the
electromagnetic field (RFC) standards.
Make sure that the switch receives adequate ventilation.
Do not block the ventilation holes on the switch
The power outlet should be within 1.8 meters of the
switch.
11
EX16908 www.etherwan.com
Connecting to Power
Connect the supplied AC to DC adapter to the receptacle
on the back of the switch, then plug the cord into a
standard AC outlet with a voltage range from 100 to 240
VAC.
