2-4 Hardware Installation

v1.0, November 2007

Installing the Switch

You can install the switch on a flat surface or in a standard 19-inch rack.

Installing the Switch on a Flat Surface

The switch ships with four self-adhesive rubber footpads. Stick one rubber footpad on each of the

four concave spaces on the bottom of the switch. The rubber footpads cushion the switch against

shock and vibrations.

Installing the Switch in a Rack

To install the switch in a rack, you need the 19-inch rack-mounting kit supplied with your switch.

1. Attach the supplied mounting brackets to the side of the switch.

2. Use the provided Phillips head screws to fasten the brackets to the sides of the switch.

Ventilation Do not restrict airflow by covering or obstructing air inlets on the sides of the switch.

Keep at least 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) free on all sides for cooling. Be sure that

there is adequate airflow in the room or wiring closet where you will install the switch.

Cabling Route the cable to avoid sources of electrical noise such as radio transmitters,

broadcast amplifiers, power lines, and fluorescent lighting fixtures.
