Depending on your installation, the following accessory kits may be
required:
• One 3510-Pair Rack Mount Kit — this accessory kit is used to connect
two ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+ switches together
side-by-side and mount them in a 19 inch rack. The kit includes all
necessary brackets and fasteners and must be ordered separately
(Order Code AL3511002-E6)
• One Spare Rack Mount Kit – this kit can be used to mount an ERS
3510GT or ERS 3510GT–PWR+ under a desk or on to another
surface. This kit is also used as a replacement rack mount kit for ERS
3524GT,
ERS 3524GT-PWR+, ERS 3526T, ERS 3526T-PWR+, ERS 3549GTS, or
ERS 3549GTS-PWR+ systems (Order Code AL3511001-E6)
• One 3510-Single Rack Mount Kit – this kit is used to mount a single
ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+ switch in a standard 19 inch rack.
Kit includes all mounting brackets and fasteners and must be
ordered separately (Order Code AL3511003-E6)
Note: There is a Kensington Lock slot on the back of each switch.
Carefully remove the plastic plug from the hole if you need to use the
K-Lock slot of an ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+ unit.

(Optional) Prepare the rack:
a. Provide the equivalent of one rack of vertical space for each switch
in an EIA or IEC-standard 19-inch (48.2-centimeter) equipment rack.
b. Ensure that the equipment rack is stable and securely attached to a
permanent structure.
c. Ground the rack to the same grounding electrode used by the
power service in the area. The ground path must be permanent
and must not exceed 1 Ohm of resistance from the rack to the
grounding electrode. Extreme Networks recommends using a filter
or surge suppressor.

When you install the switch into a network, ensure you use the
following cables:
• Category 5E or higher specification cabling should be used
for 1 Gbps/1000 Mbps operation
• RJ-45 Console port cables as follows:

Table/Shelf mouting
If you are mounting the ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+ switch on
a table or shelf, attach the rubber feet to the device as indicated.
Set the device on a flat surface near an AC power source, making sure
there is at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) of space on all sides for proper air
flow, and at least 5 inches (12.7 cm) at the back for power
cord clearance.

Rack mounting - ERS 3524GT, ERS 3524GT-PWR+,
ERS 3526T, ERS 3526T-PWR+, ERS 3549 GTS,
or ERS 3549 GTS-PWR+
If you are mounting the ERS 3524GT, ERS 3524GT-PWR+, ERS 3526T,
or ERS 3526T-PWR+ switch in an equipment rack, attach the rack
mount brackets to each side of the device using the screws provided.
Choose the appropriate rack-mount for attaching the switch to your
data or phone rack.
a. Slide the switch into the rack. Insert and tighten the rack-mount
screws.

Rack mounting pairs -
ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+
To rack mount a pair of ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+ switches:
Use the 3510-Pair Rack Mount Accessory Kit (AL3511002-E6) to mount
two ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+ switches together side-by-side
in a standard 19" rack.
Note: When mounting two 3510GT-PWR+ units side by side in an
equipment rack, run the switches in high power mode to ensure
adequate airflow.
1. Ensure power is disconnected from the switch.
2. Connect the two ERS 3510GT switches together by opening the
hinged bracket to 90° and attaching it to each ERS 3510GT
switch with three M4 flat head screws (included), as shown
below.
3. Attach the standard rack mount bracket ears to the outer end of
each switch as shown below.
4. Once the switches are joined together, fold the hinged
bracket inward.
5. Perform one of the following:
• To connect two ERS 3510GT or two 3510GT-PWR+ switches
together use the rear bracket as shown below, with four M4 pan
head screws to secure the switches at the rear. Once the rear
bracket has been installed, the switches can be installed in
the rack.
• To connect one ERS 3510GT switch and one ERS 3510GT-PWR+
switch together use the offset rear bracket with four M4 pan
head screws to join the switches at the rear. Once the rear
bracket has been installed, the switches can be installed in the
rack.
Note: If you are mounting a mix of ERS 3510GT and ERS
3510GT-PWR+ units side by side, ensure that the ERS 3510GT unit
is mounted on the LEFT side (when viewed from the front) for
adequate airflow.
