Note: The images in this guide are for demonstration only and may differ from your actual product.

• Kensington Security Slot
  Secure the lock (not provided) into the security slot to prevent the device from being stolen.

• Power Socket
  Plug the female connector of the power cord directly into the power socket and plug the male connector into an AC outlet. Make sure that the voltage of the power supply meets the requirement of the input voltage (100–240 V ~ 50/60 Hz).

• Grounding Terminal
  The switch already comes with lightning protection mechanism. You can also ground the switch through the PE (Protecting Earth) cable of AC cord or with Ground Cable.

Installation

1. Method 1: Desktop Installation
2. Method 2: Rack Installation

Note:

• Leave 5 to 10 cm gaps around the devices for air circulation.
• Avoid placing heavy things on the device.
• Place the device with its bottom facing downwards.
• Mount devices in sequence from the bottom to top of the rack and ensure a certain clearance between devices for the purpose of heat dissipation.

Safety Precautions

To avoid any device damage and bodily injury caused by improper use, you should observe the following rules.

• Keep the power off during the installation.
• Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, and make sure that the wrist strap has a good skin contact and is well grounded.
• Use only the power cord provided with the switch.
• Make sure that the supply voltage matches the specifications indicated on the rear panel of the switch.
• Ensure that the switch is installed in a well-ventilated environment and its ventilation hole is not blocked.
• Do not open or remove the cover of the switch.
• Before cleaning the device, cut off the power supply.
• Do not clean it by the waterish cloth, and never use any other liquid cleaning method.
• Place the device with its bottom surface downward.

Lightning Protection

• Extremely high voltage currents can be produced instantly when lightning occurs and the air in the electric discharge path can be instantly heated up to 20,000 °C.
• As this instant current is strong enough to damage electronic devices, more effective lightning protection measures should be taken.
• Ensure that the rack and the device are well earthed.
• Make sure the power socket has a good contact with the ground.
• Keep a reasonable cabling system and avoid induced lightning.
• Use the signal SPD (Surge Protective Device) when wiring outdoor.

Note:
For detailed lightning protection measures, refer to the Lightning Protection Guide from the Related Documents of our website: https://www.tp-link.com/us /configuration-guides/lightning_protection_guide .

Installation Site

• When installing the device on a rack or a flat workbench, attach much importance to the following items:
• The rack or workbench is flat, stable, and sturdy enough to support the weight of 5.5 kg at least.
• The rack or workbench has a good ventilation system. The equipment room is well ventilated.
• The rack is well grounded. Keep the device less than 1.5 meters away from the power socket.

Site Requirements

Temperature/Humidity

Keep the equipment room at an appropriate level of temperature and humidity. Too much or too little humidity may lead to bad insulation, leakage of electricity, mechanical property changes, and corrosion. High temperatures may accelerate aging of the insulation materials, significantly shortening the service life of the device. To find out the best temperature and humidity conditions for the device, check the following table.

Clearness

• The dust accumulated on the switch can be absorbed by static electricity and result in poor contact of metal contact points. Some measures have been taken for the device to prevent static electricity, but too strong static electricity can cause deadly damage to the electronic elements on the internal circuit board. To avoid the effect of static electricity on the operation of the switch, attach much importance to the following items:
  • Dust the device regularly, and keep the indoor air clean.
  • Keep the device well grounded and ensure that the static electricity has been transferred.

Electromagnetic Interference

• Electronic elements including capacitance and inductance on the device can be affected by external interferences, such as conducted emission by capacitance coupling, inductance coupling, and impedance coupling. To decrease the interferences, make sure to take the following measures:
• Use the power supply that can effectively filter interference from the power grid.
• Keep the device far from high-frequency and strong-current devices such as radio transmitting station.
• Use electromagnetic shielding when necessary.
