Hardware Installation

Before You Begin
Observe the following precautions to help prevent
shutdowns, equipment failures, and personal injury:
• Install the DGS-1026MP in a cool and dry
place. Refer to the technical specifications in
the user manual for the acceptable operating
temperature and humidity ranges.
• Install the switch in a site free from strong
electromagnetic sources, vibration, dust, and
direct sunlight.
• Leave at least 10 cm of space at the left and right-
hand side of the switch for ventilation.
• Visually inspect the power connector and make
sure that it is fully secured to the power cord.
• Do not stack any devices on top of the switch.

rubber feet which allow the switch to be placed on
a flat surface such as a desk or table, without risk of
damaging it. To attach the rubber feet, simply place
one in each corner of the bottom panel of the switch.

Grounding the Switch
This section will provide step-by-step instructions
on how to connect the switch to ground. This step
must be completed before powering on the switch.
Required tools and equipment for grounding
• Grounding screw (included) and one M4x6
(metric) pan-head screw (not included).
• Grounding cable (not included). The grounding
cable should be sized according to local and
national installation requirements. Depending
on the power supply and system, a 12 to 6 AWG
copper conductor is required for installation.
Commercially available 6 AWG wire is
recommended. The length of the cable depends
on the proximity of the switch to proper
grounding facilities.
• A screwdriver (not included).
