Installation and Maintenance

Pre-installation preparation: Verify rack airflow alignment (front-to-rear). Calculate PoE load to avoid budget overdraw. Ground chassis via dual M4 screws (≤0.1 Ω). Use shielded Cat6A cables for 10G uplinks.

Maintenance recommendations: Monitor PoE utilization via ExtremeXOS® analytics. Clean air filters quarterly in dusty environments. Update firmware using ExtremeWorkflow Composer. Replace failed power supplies within 24hrs for critical deployments.
