Installing 

For installation procedures, please refer to the Quick Start Guide that came with the SX switch. You can 

also visit the dealer portal on our website for all the current manuals and Quick Start Guides. 
Note: If you install the switch in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient 

temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the room temperature. Make sure you install 

the equipment somewhere within the recommended temperature range.  
For free-standing installation, make sure that the switch has at least 1.5 in. (3.75cm) of clearance on 

each side to allow for adequate air flow and cooling.
