2 Preparing for Installation
2.1 Safety Precautions
Note
To avoid body injury and device damage, please carefully read the safety precautions before you install the
RG -S6150-X series switches.
The following safety precautions do not cover all possible dangers.
2.1.1 General Safety Precautions
Keep the chassis clean and dust-free.
Do not place the device in walking areas.
Do not wear loose clothes, ornaments or any other things that may be hooked by the chassis during the
installation and maintenance.
Cut off all power supplies and unplug all power cords and cables before installing or handling the switch.
2.1.2 Handling Safety
Avoid frequent removals after the device is installed.
Turn off all power supplies and unplug all power cords and cables before moving or handling the device.
Keep balance and prevent personal injuries when handling the switch.
Caution
When the device is being removed, do not hold the power supply handle or the fan handle for these parts are
not designed for bearing the entire weight of the device. It will cause damage to the device or to your body if
you hold these parts when removing the device.
To reduce the weight of the chassis during the removal, dismantle the extension module, fan module and the
power supply module first.
Install and operate the device in places where removing is restricted.
2.1.3 Electric Safety
Observe local regulations and specifications when electric operations are performed. Relevant operators
must be qualified.
Carefully check any potential danger in the working area, such as ungrounded power supply, unreliable
grounding of the power supply, and damp/wet ground.
Find out the location of the emergency power supply switch in the room before installation. First cut off the
power supply in the case of an accident.
Be sure to make a careful check before you shut down the power supply.
Do not place the device in a damp location. Do not let any liquid enter the chassis.

Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Preparing for Installation
17
Caution
Any nonstandard and inaccurate electrical operation can cause accidents such as fires or electrical attacks,
thus causing severe, or even fatal damages to human bodies and the devices.
Direct or indirect touch through a wet object on high-voltage and mains supply can bring a fatal danger.
2.1.4 Electrostatic Discharge Safety
When the static electricity exceeds a certain value, it will damage the circuit and device. The electrostatic
induction mainly comes from outdoor high voltage power lines, lightning and other external electric fields, indoor
floor materials and the internal structure of the device.
To prevent damage from static electricity, please pay attention to the following tips:
Properly ground the device and floor.
Keep the indoor installation environment clean and free of dust.
Maintain appropriate humidity conditions.
Before installing the various pluggable modules, please wear an anti-static wrist strap and make sure that it
is well grounded.
Do not touch the components and printed circuit board of the module directly with your hands.
Use an ESD bag to keep the module.
Avoid clothing and other items in contact with the circuit board. The anti-static wrist strap can only prevent
damage to the circuit board caused by static electricity on the body. Static electricity on clothing cannot be
prevented.
2.1.5 Laser Safety
Among the modules supported by the RG-S6150-X series switches, there are many transceiver modules that
are Class I laser product.
Precautions:
When a fiber transceiver works, ensure that the port has been connected with a fiber or has been covered
by a dust cap so as to keep out dust and prevent it from burning your eyes.
Do not stare at any fiber port.
Caution
Do not stare at any fiber port under any circumstances, as this may cause permanent damage to your eyes.
2.2 Installation Environment Requirements
Install the RG-S6150-X series switches indoors. To ensure the normal operation and prolonged service life of
the device, the installation site must meet the following requirements.
2.2.1 Cabinet Installation Requirements
If the switch is installed inside a cabinet, the following conditions must be met:

Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Preparing for Installation
18
Install the switch in an open cabinet. If you install the switch inside a closed cabinet, be sure that the cabinet
has a good ventilation and heat dissipation system.
Be sure that the cabinet is firm enough to bear the weight of the switch and its accessories.
You are advised to install the switch into a standard cabinet and maintain a proper clearance around the air
vents for heat dissipation.
The cabinet should be properly grounded.
2.2.2 Ventilation Requirements
Reserve sufficient space in front of the air vents to ensure normal heat dissipation. Maintain a minimum
clearance of 200 mm (7.87 in.) around the device for air circulation. After various cables are connected, bundle
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.
2.2.3 Temperature and Humidity Requirements
To ensure the normal operation and prolonged service life of the RG-S6150-X series switches, maintain an
appropriate temperature and humidity in the equipment room. The equipment room with too high or too low
temperature and humidity for a long period of time may damage the equipment.
In an environment with high relative humidity, the insulating material may have bad insulation or even leak
electricity. And sometimes the materials may suffer from mechanical performance change and metallic parts
may get rusted.
In an environment with low relative humidity, static electricity is prone to occur and damage the internal
circuits of the switch.
In an environment with high temperature, the equipment is subjected to even greater harm. Too high
temperature can accelerate the aging of insulation materials, greatly reducing the reliability of the switch and
severely affecting its service life.

Model
Operating Temperature
Operating Relative Humidity
RG-S6150-48VS8CQ-X
0ºC to 45ºC (32ºF to 113ºF)
10% to 90% (non-condensing)
RG-S6150-24VS8CQ-X
0ºC to 45ºC (32ºF to 113ºF)
10% to 90% (non-condensing)
Note
The ambient temperature and humidity of the switch are measured at the point that is 1.5 m (59.06 in.) above
the floor and 0.4 m (15.75 in.) before the switch rack when there is no protective plate in front or at the back of
the rack.
2.2.4 Cleanliness Requirements
Dust poses the top threat to the running of the device. The indoor dust falling on the device may be adhered by
the static electricity, causing poor contact of the metallic joint. Such electrostatic adherence may occur more
