Installing a Switch

On a mounting screw of the chassis of the H3C series switches, there is a seal labeled with H3C. You
need to keep it intact before asking the agent to maintain the switch. You need to get the permission of
the local agent before you can open the chassis. Otherwise, you will be responsible for irreversible
damages caused by your operations.
Installing a Switch
You can install a switch into a 19-inch standard cabinet in one of the following three ways:
Use front mounting ears
Use front mounting ears and a tray
Use front mounting ears and guide rails
The front mounting ears are provided in the standard package, while trays and guide rails are
optional parts that you need to order as needed.
When installing devices, ensure a clearance of 1U (44.45 mm, or 1.75 in.) between devices for heat
dissipation.
The guide rails provided by H3C are suitable for H3C 1000 mm (39.37 in.) standard cabinets only.
If the depth of your cabinet does not fit, use other supports to replace the guide rails.
The switch for illustrating the installation procedures in the following sections is for reference only.
