2-2 893-839-C
1. To begin the installation process, install any optional media adapters
and expansion slot modules (such as an NMM) into your hub.
a. Bay Networks recommends that you install your NMM in the top hub
of the stack.
b. Make sure filler panels cover any unused slots to maintain correct air
flow inside the hub.
Installing a Hub on a Table or Shelf
To install a 100-series hub on a table or shelf, follow these steps:
1. Peel off the protective backing from the rubber feet and apply one at
each marked location on the bottom of the hub.
2. Set the hub on a table or shelf so that it meets all specifications listed
in Appendix A, “Technical Specifications.
3. Proceed to
Completing the Installation” on page 5 to finish this
installation procedure.
Installing a Hub in a Rack
You will need a #2 Phillips screwdriver for attaching mounting brackets.
To install a 100-series hub in a rack, follow these steps:
1. Install mounting brackets on the hub.
You can attach the mounting brackets in different positions on the hub (see
F
igure 2-1). If you install the mounting brackets with the rack flange
facing forward, the back of the hub projects behind the rack. If you install
the mounting brackets with the rack flange to the rear, you will have more
space at the back of the rack for servicing the hub.
CAUTION: Power to the hub must be off to install optional modules.
