•  The systemfans are used to dissipate heat. The sides of the system also provide heat vents to 

serve the same purpose. Do not block these openings, and leave at least 6 inches of space at the 

rear and sides of the switch for proper ventilation. Be reminded that without proper heat 

dissipation and air circulation, system components might overheat, which could lead to system 

failure. 

Optional 100BASE and 1000BASE Extension Modules 

The Switch is able to accommodate a range of optional plug-in modules in order to increase 

functionality and performance. These modules must be purchased separately.
