This document provides basic information to install, configure, and operate Dell™ PowerConnect™ PC6224,
PC6248, PC6224P, PC6248P, and PC6224F systems. For more information, see the User's Guide, which is

Site Preparation

PowerConnect 6200 series switches can be mounted in a standard 48.26-cm (19-inch) rack or left freestanding
(placed on a flat surface). These switches can function as stand-alone switches. They can also be installed as a
stack of switches that function, and are managed, as a single entity.
Before installing the switch or switches, make sure that the chosen installation location meets the following site
requirements:
• Power — The switch is installed near an easily accessible 100–250 VAC, 50–60 Hz outlet.
• Clearance — There is adequate front and rear clearance for operator access. Allow clearance for cabling,
power connections, and ventilation.
• Cabling — The cabling is routed to avoid sources of electrical noise such as radio transmitters, broadcast
amplifiers, power lines, and fluorescent lighting fixtures.
• Ambient — The ambient switch operating temperature range is 0 to 45ºC (32 to 113ºF) at a relative
humidity of up to 95 percent, non-condensing.
