Tips for Installing More than One Switch
Review the following tips.
■ Install the first Director 2/64 in the lowest position of the rack, allocated for
switches.
■ Consider leaving a space of 1U open at the top and bottom of the rack, to
allow easier cabling access.
■ If installing more than one switch, HP recommends installing an optional
Power Distribution Unit (PDU) in the bottom of the rack. HP ships two PDU
power cords with the Director 2/64.
■ Install additional Director 2/64s in position directly above one another.
■ Make sure to connect power cables as you install each individual switch.
Moving the Director 2/64
Use these steps to position the Director 2/64 next to the rack.
WARNING: Two people will need to work together to transfer the
Director 2/64 to the lift. Make sure the wheels of the lift cannot roll as you
transfer the Director 2/64 to the lift. Move the Director 2/64 slowly and
carefully onto the lift to prevent back and hand injury. Dropping the Director
2/64 could injure personnel or damage the equipment.
1. Position the lift device next to the Director 2/64.
2. Using a pallet jack, raise the pallet on which the Director 2/64 is mounted to
the same height as the top surface of the lift device.
3. Slide the Director 2/64 across from the pallet to the lift device.
4. Determine the appropriate rack-mount position. Remember that the Director
2/64 is 15.75 inches or 9 U high.
