top of your desk or have it wall-mounted. For GS1100-16, GS1100-24 and GS110-24E, the size is
suitable for rack-mounting and you can refer to
of the following:
• The Switch should have a minimum 25 mm space around it for ventilation.

Screw the two screws provided with your Switch into the wall (see the figure in step 2). Use screws
1
with 6 mm ~ 8 mm (0.24" ~ 0.31") wide heads. Do not screw the screws all the way in to the wall;
leave a small gap between the head of the screw and the wall.
The gap must be big enough for the screw heads to slide into the screw slots and the connection
cables to run down the back of the Switch.
Note: Make sure the screws are securely fixed to the wall and strong enough to hold the
weight of the Switch with the connection cables.
Align the holes on the back of the Switch with the screws on the wall. Hang the Switch on the
2
screws.
