2 Preparing for Installation
2.1 Safety Precautions
Warning
To avoid personal injury and device damage, carefully read the safety precautions before you install the
RG-IF2920U-12GT1XS.
The following safety precautions may not cover all possible dangers.
2.1.1 Mounting
Keep the chassis clean and dust-free.
Do not place the device in a walking area.
During installation and maintenance, do not wear loose clothes, ornaments, or any other things that may be
hooked by the chassis.
Cut off all the power supplies and unplug all power cords before handling the switch.
2.1.2 Handling
Avoid handling the device frequently.
Keep balance and prevent personal injuries when handling the device.
Cut off all the power supplies and unplug all power cords before moving or handling the switch. Avoid scalds
because the housing surface is hot.
2.1.3 Electricity
Observe local regulations and specifications during electric operations. Only qualified personnel can perform
such operations.
Before installing the device, check whether there are hidden risks in the operating environment of the device.
For example, check whether the power socket is grounded and whether the ground is wet.
Determine the location of the indoor emergency power supply switch before installing the device. When an
accident occurs, immediately cut off all power supplies.
Do not maintain the device by yourself when the device is powered on.
Make sure that the device is powered off when you cut off the power supply.
Do not place the switch in a wet position, and keep the switch away from liquid.
Warning
Improper or incorrect electric operations may cause a fire, electric shock, and other accidents, and lead
to severe and fatal personal injury and device damage.
Direct or indirect contact through wet objects with high voltage or mains power supply may be fatal.
When this device is running, the surface temperature of the top cover is high. Install and use it in the area
that can only be accessed by maintenance personnel or skilled technicians.

2.1.4 ESD
To prevent damage caused by static electricity, pay attention to the following points:
Keep the indoor installation environment clean and dust-free.
Keep the indoor humidity within a certain range.
2.1.5 Laser
The RG-IF2920U-12GT1XS supports various types of optical transceivers available in the market, and these
optical transceiver are Class I laser products. Improper use of an optical transceiver may cause damage.
Therefore, pay attention to the following:
When a fiber transceiver works, ensure that the port has been connected with a fiber or covered by a dust cap
to keep out dust and prevent it from burning your eyes.
When an optical transceiver is working, do not look into its port after removing the optical fiber. Otherwise, your
eyes may be hurt.
Warning
Do not approach or look into any optical port under any circumstances. This may cause permanent damage to
your eyes.
2.1.6 Storage
To ensure proper working of the device, store the device in an environment based on the storage temperature or
humidity requirements in specifications.
Caution
If the device has been powered off for more than 18 months, power on the device and run it for consecutive 24
hours to activate the device.
2.2 Installation Site Requirements
The installation site must meet the following requirements to ensure the normal operation and prolonged service
life of the device.
2.2.1 Ventilation
For the RG-IF2920U-12GT1XS, maintain sufficient clearance on both sides of the chassis and above the chassis
for air circulation. After various cables are connected, bind the cables or place them in the cable management
bracket to avoid blocking air inlets. Dust the device every three months to avoid blocking the ventilation openings
on the housing.
The RG-IF2920U-12GT1XS uses natural heat dissipation, and the heat is primarily dissipated through the
housing. The surface temperature of the device is high. It is crucial to install the device in a restricted-access
area that offers sufficient ventilation.
