Setup Guide

18 Getting Started Guide
4
Insert the switch into the 48.26 cm (19 inch) rack, ensuring that the rack-
mounting holes on the switch line up to the mounting holes in the rack.
5
Secure the switch to the rack with either the rack bolts or cage nuts and
cage-nut bolts with washers (depending on the kind of rack you have).
Fasten the bolts on bottom before fastening the bolts on top.
CAUTION: Make sure that the supplied rack bolts fit the pre-threaded holes
in the rack.
NOTE: Make sure that the ventilation holes are not obstructed.
Installing as a Free-standing Switch
NOTE: We strongly recommend mounting the switch in a rack.
Install the switch on a flat surface if you are not installing it in a rack.
The surface must be able to support the weight of the switch and the switch
cables. The switch is supplied with four self-adhesive rubber pads.
1
Attach the self-adhesive rubber pads on each location marked on the
bottom of the switch.
2
Set the switch on a flat surface, and make sure that it has proper
ventilation by leaving 5 cm (2 inches) on each side and 13 cm (5 inches)
at the back.
