To mount the switch in a rack without the use of rails, fasten the brackets to the
switch as shown in Figure 4-2. Place the switch in the rack and fasten the bracket
flanges to the rack with two screws on each side.
Figure 4-2. Mounting the Switch in a Rack without Rails
CAUTION! If the switch is mounted in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
make sure that the operating temperature inside the rack
enclosure does not exceed the maximum rated ambient
temperature. Refer to ”Environmental” on page A-5.
Do not restrict chassis air flow. Allow 16 cm (6.5 in) minimum
clearance at the front and rear of the switch (surface mount) or
rack for service access and ventilation.
Multiple rack-mounted units connected to the AC supply circuit
may overload that circuit or overload the AC supply wiring.
Consider the power source capacity and the total power usage
of all switches on the circuit. Refer to ”Electrical” on page A-4.
Reliable grounding in the rack must be maintained from the
switch chassis to the AC power source.
