Installing the HP 8200 zl Switches
The 8200 zl switches are easy to install. Each comes with an accessory kit that
includes the brackets for mounting the switch in a standard 19-inch telco rack,
or in an equipment cabinet. The switch has rubber feet already attached so
they can be securely located on a horizontal surface. This chapter tells you
how to install your 8212 zl or 8206 zl switch.
WARNING To avoid possible personal injury, be careful when lifting the chassis
out of the shipping box. The Switch 8212 zl chassis base system weighs
approximately 50.45 pounds as shipped and 44.75 pounds when empty.
See “Installation Precautions” on page 2-5 for additional safety
considerations when handling this product.
