 XS712T Smart Switch
Step 1: Prepare the Site
Before you install the switch, ensure that the operating environment meets the site 
requirements in the following table.
Table 3.  Site requirements
Characteristics Requirements
Mounting
Desktop installations. Provide a flat table or shelf surface.
Rack-mount installations. Use a 19 inch (48.3 centimeter) EIA standard equipment rack 
that is grounded and physically secure. The rack-mount kit supplied with the switch is 
also required. 
Access
Locate the switch in a position that allows you to access the front panel RJ-45 ports, view the 
front panel LEDs, and access the power connector.
Power source
Provide a power connection cord. Power specifications for the switch are shown in 
. Ensure the AC outlet is not controlled by a wall switch, which can 
accidentally turn off power to the outlet and the switch.
Environmental
Temperature. Install the switch in a dry area, with ambient temperature between 0ºC and 
50ºC (32ºF and 122ºF). Keep the switch away from heat sources such as direct sunlight, 
warm air exhausts, hot-air vents, and heaters.
Operating humidity. The installation location should have a maximum relative humidity of 
90%, noncondensing.
Ventilation. Do not restrict airflow by covering or obstructing air inlets on the sides of the 
switch. Keep at least 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) free on all sides for cooling. Be sure 
that there is adequate airflow in the room or wiring closet where the switch is installed.
Operating conditions. Keep the switch at least 6 feet. (1.83 meters) away from nearest 
source of electromagnetic noise, such as a photocopy machine.
Step 2: Install the Switch
The smart switch can be used on a flat surface or mounted in a standard network equipment 
rack.
Install the Switch on a Flat Surface
This procedure explains how to install the switch on a flat surface.
To install the switch on a flat surface: 
Stick one of the provided rubber footpads on each of the four concave spaces on the bottom 
of the switch. 
The switch ships with four self-adhesive rubber footpads. The rubber footpads cushion the 
switch against shock and vibrations.
