Stability hazard. The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the rack must be bolted to the floor
before you slide the unit out for servicing. Failure to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over.
Clearance Requirements
Provide the chassis with adequate clearance between the chassis and any other rack, device, or structure so
that you can properly install the chassis. Provide the chassis with adequate clearance to route cables, provide
airflow, and maintain the switch. For the clearances required for an installation of this chassis in a four-post
rack, see the following figure.
