Unpacking and Inspecting the Switch

Unpacking and Inspecting the Switch
Before you install the switch, be sure to unpack and inspect the switch for damage or missing components.
If anything is missing or damaged, contact your customer service representative immediately.
Tip Keep the shipping container in case the chassis requires shipping at a later time.
Before you begin
Before you unpack the switch and before you handle any switch components, be sure that you are wearing a
grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) strap. To ground the strap, attach it directly to an earth ground or to
a grounded rack or grounded chassis (there must be a metal-to-metal connection to the earth ground).
Step 1
Compare the shipment to the equipment list provided by your customer service representative and verify that you have
received all items, including the following:
• Accessory Kit
Step 2 Check for damage and report any discrepancies or damage to your customer service representative. Have the following
information ready:
• Invoice number of shipper (see packing slip)
• Model and serial number of the damaged unit
• Description of damage
• Effect of damage on the installation

Kit
To install the switch, you must attach front and rear mounting brackets to the switch, install slider rails on the
rear of the rack, slide the switch onto the slider rails, and secure the switch to the front of the rack. Typically,
the front of the rack is the side easiest to access for maintenance.
Note
You must supply the eight 10-32 or 12-24 screws required to mount the slider rails and switch to the rack.
Before you begin
• You have inspected the switch shipment to ensure that you have everything ordered.
