Chapter 1. Introduction
This chapter describes the steps required to install your IBM 8265 Nways ATM Switch.
These steps are explained in detail in later chapters of this book.
Before You Begin
The 8265 ATM Switch is designed for easy access, maintenance, installation, and upgrade by service
personnel. When installing the switch, be sure to comply with the environmental and power guidelines
given in the
IBM 8265 Nways ATM Switch Planning and Site Preparation Guide, SA33-0460. In particular:
Ambient (room) Temperature: 10 to 40° Celsius (50 to 104° Fahrenheit)
Relative humidity: 8–85%, non-condensing
Power source (AC or DC) within 6 feet (approximately 2.7 meters)
Safety regulations stipulate that the table, shelf or rack on which the 8265 rests should be able to
support at least three times the weight of a fully loaded 8265. A fully loaded 8265 weighs
approximately 120 lbs., or 54 kg, so the table, shelf, or rack must be able to support 360 lbs. or 163
kg.
That the surface on which the 8265 is to be installed is level.
