2–6 DEChub 900 MultiSwitch Owner’s Manual
Installing the Chassis on a Wall
The chassis can be mounted directly on a wall using the wall bracket and hanger
mounting device.
CAUTION
!
The total weight of a fully configured DEChub 900 MultiSwitch chassis
with network modules and cables is approximately 80 pounds (36 kg).
This configuration is too heavy for an office wall partition. Be sure to
install the chassis on a wall that can support the weight.
Installing the Wall Mounting Bracket
Perform the following five steps to install the wall mounting bracket:
1. Mark the location for the nine #8 wood screws. Digital recommends that you
place the screws so that the LED indicators on the network modules will be at
eye level.
2. Using a 1/8-inch (3.1 mm) bit, drill pilot holes at the locations marked on the
wall.
3. Place the mounting bracket over the drilled holes.
4. Screw two #8 wood screws into the pilot holes at each end of the mounting
bracket until each head is approximately 1/8-inch from the surface of the
mounting bracket.
5. Ensure that the mounting bracket is straight and level. Place screws in the
remaining pilot holes and tighten the screws (see Figure 2–3).
