Installing the SAN Switch 2/32
IMPORTANT: Before starting this procedure, verify that two of the slide mount L-brackets are
preinstalled at the end of each outer slide rail, see Figure 2–4. The L-brackets are necessary to
attach the outer rails to the rack.
1. Determine the appropriate placement for the switch inside the rack. The HP 9000
Series Rack's rails are divided into Units (Us). Each U is marked with a small,
round hole and three square openings for mounting equipment.
NOTE: The SAN Switch 2/32 requires 1.5 Units of rack space.
2. Locate the small, round marker hole on the rack's rails, that coincides with the
location selected in step 1. Each marker hole delineates the beginning of one U.
3. Insert one square alignment washer on each of the
screws.
NOTE: The square alignment washers are mandatory for proper switch alignment.
4. Adjust the outer slide rail's length to fit the length of the rack.
5. Position one of the outer slide rails in the rack, as described below:
a. To allow the switch's port end to slide out the back of the rack, orient with the
closed end of the outer slide rail towards the front of the rack.
b. To allow the power supply end to slide out the front of the rack, orient the
closed end of the outer slide rail towards the back of the rack.
6. Holding the outer slide rail in place, insert one 3-hole bar nut in between the
rack's rail and the L-bracket at the end of the outer slide rail, see Figure 2–4.
IMPORTANT: Position the square alignment washers onto the Phillips head 10-32 x 3/8 in
screws, as described in step 3. The square alignment washers are mandatory for proper switch
alignment.
