Rack-Mounting The Eps-Ld Unit - Extreme Networks Summit Summit1i Hardware Installation Manual

Rack-mounting the EPS-LD unit

NOTE
When installing an EPS-LD in a rack, make sure air vents are not restricted. Allow for elevated ambient
operating temperatures when installed adjacent to other equipment. Mount equipment within rack so a
hazardous condition is not achieved because of uneven mechanical loading.
The EPS-LD unit can be mounted in a rack, or placed free-standing on a tabletop. You can mount the
EPS-LD facing either the front or the back of the rack. For this reason, each unit has two sets of
mounting holes; two on each end. Mounting the EPS-LD so that the unit's output connectors are on the
same side as the external connector on the connecting switch.
CAUTION
Do not use the rack-mount kits to suspend the EPS-LD from under a table or desk, or to attach the
switch to a wall.
To install the EPS-LD, you need the following tools and materials:
• Electrostatic strap
• A #1 Phillips screwdriver
To rack mount each EPS-LD unit:
1 Place the EPS-LD unit upright on a hard flat surface, with the side you want to face to the front of
the switch toward you.
2 Ensure that the rack and chassis are grounded to protective earth ground.
For more information about grounding the rack, see "Protective Grounding for the Rack" on page 46.
For more information about grounding the chassis, see "Grounding the Alpine 3800 Series Chassis"
on page 121.
3 Remove the mounting bracket kit (including screws) from the packaging.
4 Locate a mounting bracket over the mounting holes on one side of the unit.
5 Insert the screws, as shown in Figure 61, and fully tighten the screws with a #1 Phillips screwdriver.
