Cables are away from sources of electrical noise such as:
radio transmitters
broadcast amplifiers
power lines
fluorescent light fixtures
Water or moisture cannot enter the chassis.
Air can flow freely around all sides of the chassis.
The vents on the sides of the chassis are not blocked.

Choosing the Installation Site
The environmental conditions match the requirements listed in Table 2.
Table 2: Environmental Requirements
Condition Acceptable values
Ambient temperature 23
o
to 122oF (-5o to 50oC) Relative humidity 5-95% non-condensing Weight support

Building a stack

Follow the guidelines in this section in order to build a working stack using any combination of the following devices:
P330 series
P330-ML series
G700
P330 series
1. Add only a single box at a time to an existing stack.
!
Important:
Important: The stack master (also called "stack IP Agent") may fail to preserve existing
"stack configuration" if you will add more than a single device to an existing stack at a time.
-
After adding the first box, wait until the stack is function ing fully before adding the next device.
2. Refer to Table 4
to see which firmware versions can be used in mixed stacks. For example, if you wish to add a P332G-ML to a stack with P330 4.5 switches, the P332G-ML switch must have firmware version 4.5.8.
-
Upgrade/downgrade the firmware of switches that do not match version in the table.
Tip:
Tip: It is highly recommended to upgrade/downgrade before connecting the added
box to an existing stack.
-
Ensure switches of the same type have the same firmware version

Note:
Note: If there are two switches with the same firmware version and the same election
priority, the switch positioned lower in the stack becomes Stack Master.
