Rack-Mounting
Rack-Mounting
Refer to the following important guidelines before installing the chassis in a rack:
Two people are required to rack mount the switch: One person to lift the chassis into position and one
•
person to secure the chassis to the rack using the rack mount screws.
The chassis has rack-mount flanges that support standard 19-inch rack mount installations.
•
Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise does not provide rack-mount screws. Use the screws supplied by the
•
rack vendor.
To prevent a rack from becoming top heavy, it is recommended that you install the switch at the bottom
•
of the rack whenever possible.
Note. If you are installing the switch in a relay rack, be sure to install and secure the rack per rack manu-
facturer's specifications.
