second module to the right side of the first module.
Mount the Switch
You can mount the switch in one of two ways:
• On a DIN rail
• On a wall or panel
Mount the Switch on a DIN Rail
Follow these steps to mount the switch on a DIN rail.
IMPORTANT
You cannot install an expansion module to the right of
1783-MX08F fiber expansion module.
ATTENTION
When mounting the switch on a DIN rail, you can ground the
switch through the DIN rail to chassis ground. Use zinc plated
yellow-chromate steel DIN rail to assist in proper grounding.
The use of other DIN rail materials (for example, aluminum or
plastic)) that can corrode, oxidize, or are poor conductors, can
impede proper grounding. Secure DIN rail to mounting surface
approximately every 200 mm (7.8 in.) using end-anchors
appropriately and using a washer plate along the entire length
of the DIN rail.
