Mounting

The SMC6824MPE switch can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment
rack or on a desktop or shelf. Mounting instructions for each type of site
follow.

Rack Mounting

Before rack mounting the SMC6824MPE switch, pay particular attention to
the following factors:
• Temperature: Since the temperature within a rack assembly may be
higher than the ambient room temperature, check that the
rack-environment temperature is within the specified operating
temperature range. (See page C-2.)
• Mechanical Loading: Do not place any equipment on top of a
rack-mounted unit.
• Circuit Overloading: Be sure that the supply circuit to the rack assembly
is not overloaded.
• Grounding: Rack-mounted equipment should be properly grounded.
Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than
direct connections to the mains.
