Unit Installation
Step
1 Attach the rackmount ears with the screws and brackets supplied in the Rackmount Kit.
2 To allow proper grounding, scrape the paint from the rack around the mounting holes where the
NetVanta will be positioned.
3 Position the NetVanta in a stationary equipment rack. This unit occupies 1U of space.
4 Have an assistant hold the unit in position as you install two mounting bolts through the unit's
brackets and into the equipment rack using a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver.
5 Apply power to the unit (refer to
Wall Mounting the NetVanta
By following these instructions exactly, the NetVanta can be safely mounted on the wall.
• To avoid damaging the unit, use only the screws included in the shipment when
attaching mounting ears to the chassis.
• When wall mounting the NetVanta, care must be taken not to damage the power cord.
Do not attach the power cord to the building surface or run it through walls, ceilings,
floors, or openings in the building structure.
• The socket-outlet must be installed near the equipment and must be easily accessible.
Step
1 Remove the mounting ears. Rotate them 90 degrees so that the portion of the bracket with the
mounting holes is flush with the bottom of the chassis. Reattach the mounting ears to the
chassis (see Figure 13 on page
2 Decide on a location for the NetVanta. Keep in mind that the unit needs to be mounted at or
below eye level so that the LEDs are viewable.
3 Prepare the mounting surface by attaching a board (typically plywood, 3/4-inch to 1-inch thick)
to a wall stud.
Important! Mounting to a stud ensures stability. Using sheetrock anchors may not provide
sufficient long-term stability.
4 Have an assistant hold the unit in position as you install two #6 to #10 (1-inch or greater in
length) wood screws through the unit's brackets and into the mounted board (see
page 37).
