Chapter 3: Installation

3.1 Mounting

This switch can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a horizontal surface.
Mounting instructions for each type of site follow.

3.1.1 Rack Mounting

Prior rack mounting the switch, pay particular attention to the following factors:

Mechanical Loading: Do not place any equipment on top of a rack-mounted unit.

Circuit Overloading: Be sure that the supply circuit to the rack assembly is not overloaded.

Grounding: Rack-mounted equipment should be properly grounded. Particular attention
should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the mains.

To rack-mount devices:
1. Attach the two brackets to the device using the eight M4 screws provided in the rack

mounting kit.

NOTE:
The switch can also be mounted in a rack using a rack shelf or rack “L” brackets.

(Figure 3-1: Attaching the Brackets)

2. Mount the device in the rack, using four 12-24 rack-mounting screws.

NOTE:
Rack screws and clip nuts are not supplied in the rack-mounting kit.

CAUTION:
Due to the switch’s weight, it should be installed by at least two people.
