Installing the Switch
WARNING
Mount the switch as low as possible in the rack to ensure that
the weight of the switch does not make the rack unstable. 15 Rack Units
(RUs) are required (see Figure 3).
CAUTION
The switch must be installed with the front end facing the back
of the rack. When the switch is mounted this way, the air flows through the
switch in the same direction as it does through the other equipment in the
rack (see Figure 3).
