Site
The Switch 5500 Family is suited for use in an internal wiring closet, a
network room, or telecommunications room, where you can mount it in a
standard 19-inch equipment rack or leave it free-standing.

When deciding where to position the switch, ensure that:
■ The cabling is located away from:
■ sources of electrical noise, such as radios, transmitters, and
broadband amplifiers.
■ power lines and fluorescent lighting fixtures.
■ The switch is accessible and cables can be connected easily.
