2.2  Requirements on Environment 
S3100-SI series must be used indoors. When you install your 
switch in a cabinet or install it directly on a workbench, you must 
ensure: 
z
 
Enough space is left near the air-intake hole and the 
ventilation hole of the switch for the heat dissipation of the 
switch chassis. 
z
 
The cabinet or the workbench takes good ventilation and 
heat dissipation system. 
z
 
The cabinet or the workbench is solid enough to bear the 
weight of the switch and the accessories. 
z
 
The cabinet or the workbench is well grounded. 
To ensure normal operation and to prolong the life span of the 
switch, the following requirements on the installation site must also be 
satisfied. 
2.2.1  Temperature/Humidity Requirements 
You should keep your equipment room within the proper 
temperature and humidity ranges to ensure the normal operation and 
working life of your switch. If the humidity in the equipment room is too 
high for a long time, it may decrease the insulation attribute of 
insulating material or even cause electric leakage of insulating 
material, and, sometimes, may change the mechanical performance 
of material and cause the rustiness and corrosion of metal parts. If the 
relative humidity is too low, the captive screws may become loose due 
to the shrinking of insulation washers; in addition, electrostatic is more 
likely to be produced in a dry environment, which may damage the 
circuit of the switch. High temperature may cause even greater
