The following is a list of environmental considerations that will ensure safe and efficient operations of a Digi product:

• Ensure that the Digi product has at least 12 inches of clearance on all sides to allow for proper ventilation. The PortServer generates heat and requires adequate circulation to maintain proper operating temperatures. For the same reason, never cover or obstruct the Digi product's ventilation slots.
• Do not position the Digi product near high-powered radio transmitters or electrical equipment, such as electrical motors or air conditioners. Interference from electrical equipment can cause intermittent failures.
• Avoid exceeding the maximum cabling distances discussed in the Cable Guide. The product's performance may be degraded.
• Do not install a Digi product in areas where condensation, water, or other liquids may be present. These may cause safety hazards and equipment failure.
