Installing the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch

Installing the Switch in an equipment rack

To install a switch in an equipment rack, perform this procedure.
Prerequisites for installing the switch in an equipment rack:
• Ensure that you have a space of 1.75 inches (4.45 centimeters) in height for each switch in an
EIA or IEC-standard 19-inch (48.2-centimeter) equipment rack.
• The rack is bolted to the floor and braced if necessary.
• The rack is grounded to the same grounding electrode used by the power service in the area.
The ground path must be permanent and must not exceed 1 Ohm of resistance from the rack
to the grounding electrode.
Caution:
When you mount the device in a rack, do not stack units directly on top of one another. You
must secure each unit to the rack with the appropriate mounting brackets. Mounting brackets
cannot support multiple units. For a translation of this statement, see
messages on page 45.
Note:
Avaya switch hardware can vary in size and shape. Your switch might appear different than the
following example figures.
1. Attach a bracket to each side of the switch using a #2 Phillips screwdriver as illustrated in
below.
