Mounting

A switch unit can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment
rack or on a desktop or shelf. Mounting instructions for each type
of site follow.

Rack Mounting

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

Temperature:

Since the temperature within a rack assembly

may be higher than the ambient room temperature, check that
the rack-environment temperature is within the specified
operating temperature range. (See page -2.)

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 brackets to the device using the screws provided in

the Bracket Mounting Kit.
