General Rack-Mounting Guidelines

If you will be rack-mounting your switch(es), refer to the important guidelines below before installing.
It is recommended that two people install the switch assembly on the rack—one person to hold the
•
chassis and position it on the rack, and a second person to secure the chassis to the rack using
attachment screws. (Please note that 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 heavier equipment at
•
the bottom of the rack, whenever possible.
Review page 4-1
•
If you are installing the switch on a relay rack, be sure to install and secure the rack per the rack
•
manufacturer's specifications.
