（14） Be aware of glitches which are caused in the usage environments such as age-related degradation, etc.
This may vary depending upon conditions such as utilization rates and usage environments, but performance might decrease
due to the age-related degradation, etc. of components. It is recommended that this Ethernet Switch be replaced about
five years after it has been installed.
（15） Be careful in regards to environmental restrictions whereby the Ethernet Switch can be used.
Please isolate the business power lines and communications lines. Isolate distribution lines and other distribution lines,
and low current power lines, optical fiber cables, metallic water conduits, and gas conduits, etc.
Noise may be generated in the communications lines which might cause communications glitches.
（16） Do not connect any other devices except for 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T devices to the twisted pair ports.
Deviation could lead to equipment failure.
（17） Do not insert any other modules into the SFP expansion slots except for our optional SFP modules (PN54022-TH/PN54024-TH).
Deviation could lead to equipment failure.
Check our website for the latest information on supported SFP modules.
（18） Do not connect the console ports with any other device except for Serial communication terminal.
Deviation could lead to equipment failure.
（19） To connect a power receiving equipment supporting IEEE802.3bt/at to this Ethernet Switch, use a cable rated Cat5e or higher.
Using other cables may result in heat generation, ignition, and/or equipment failure.
（20） To connect an equipment supporting IEEE802.3bt to this Ethernet Switch, it is strongly recommended that AWG24 and
65 Celsius degree or higher rated temperature cables should be used.
Using other cables may result in heat generation, ignition, and/or equipment failure.
（21） It is strongly recommended that a lightning arrester（SPD） be installed on the twisted pair port side and the power supply
side of this Ethernet Switch.
Malfunctions might be caused due to overcurrent and overvoltage due to the effects of lightning strikes.
