There are two options available to install the switch in a different direction in a rack that helps suppress heat interference,
depending on user's requirements
Reference See "2.2.1 Decide Switch Access Configuration" (pg.31) for the detailed instructions for installation.
• Rear-Access Configuration (Factory Default)
The port side (SFP+ slots) is facing backward in a rack, which serves better for connecting the switch to equipment
whose port side is also located in the backside of the rack such as servers.
• Front-Access Configuration (User Configured)
The port side (SFP+ slots) is facing forward in a rack, which serves better for connecting the switch to equipment
whose port side is facing forward such as other switches, routers, etc.
Choose either of the above to install the switch in the rack, depending on user's requirements.
It contains the Firmware and User Guide (in a PDF format) necessary for operating and
