OUNTING
Before rack mounting the 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.
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.
To rack-mount devices:
Attach the brackets to the device using the eight M4 screws provided in the
1.
Rack-Mounting Kit.
