HP StorageWorks SAN Switch 2/32 V4.2.X Installation Guide (AA-RTQVD-TE, May 2004)

Installing the SAN Switch 2/32
28 SAN Switch 2/32 Version 4.2.x Installation Guide
Caution: For proper air flow, the SFP media side of the SAN Switch 2/32
must face the rear of the rack. This mounting allows air to enter from the front
of the rack and to exhaust at the rear of the rack, similar to other rack-mounted
equipment. This prevents switch overheating, which may cause it to fail.
To install the switch in a rack:
1. Check the contents of the shipping carton to verify that all the required parts
and hardware are available.
2. Choose a mounting location in the rack for the switch.
3. Attach the rear mounting brackets to the rear rack uprights by completing one
of the following steps:
— For an HP 10000 series or comparable EIA cabinet, assemble each of the
two brackets with two #10-32 x 1/2-inch Phillips pan-head screws with
captive star lock washers and two #10 adapter washers as shown in
Figure 4.
