Installing the C3K Switch
Installing the Rubber Feet
The rubber feet provided with your switch provide ventilation to the switch and prevent surface
scratching. Enterasys Networks recommends installing the provided rubber feet when not
mounting to a standard 19‐inch rack, as the provided rubber feet may interfere with clearance of
switch when installing in the rack.
To install the rubber feet:
1.
Place the switch on its back on a sturdy flat surface to gain access to the bottom of the chassis.
2.
Remove the four rubber feet from their plastic bag in the shipping box.
3.
Locate the four marked locations on the bottom four corners of the chassis.
4.
Remove the protective strip from the back of one rubber foot and position it on a marked
location and press firmly into place. Repeat this procedure to install the remaining three
rubber feet in the other three locations.
5.
After installing the rubber feet, return the switch to its upright position.
6.
Proceed to Guidelines for Installation on a Flat Surface.
Guidelines for Installation on a Flat Surface
Locate the switch within 152 cm (5 ft) of its power source and on a surface as shown in Figure
If an optional redundant power system is going to be installed and connected to the 14‐pin
Redundant Power Supply input connector on the rear of the switch, refer to the installation guide
shipped with the redundant power system.
The next step to install the switch is dependent on the type of installation. If installing several
switches in a stack, proceed to "Connecting High‐Speed Stacking Cables" on page 2‐13. If
installing the switch as a standalone device, proceed to "Connect AC and RPS Power" on
page 2‐17 for power connection instructions.
2-10 Hardware Installation
Note: If a number of switches are being installed in a stack, repeat steps 1 through 4 to
install the rubber feet on each switch before continuing with the installation.
Caution: To ensure proper ventilation and prevent overheating, leave a minimum
clearance space of 5.1 cm (2.0 in) at the left, right, and rear of the switch.
Precaución: Para asegurar una buena ventilación y evitar que el sistema se
sobrecaliente, deje un espacio mínimo de 5.1 cm (2 pulgadas) con respecto a los lados y
a la parte posterior del aparato.
Note: Do not connect the switch to the AC power source until instructed to do so later in the
installation process.
