Installing the Switch in a Standard 19" Rack

This section is used to guide the user through installing the Switch into a switch rack. The Switch can be mounted in a
standard 19"(1U) rack using the provided mounting brackets.

2. Fasten the mounting brackets in any available open space in the rack using the screws provided.
Make sure that there is adequate space around the Switch to allow for proper air flow, ventilation, and cooling.

Installing Transceivers into the Transceiver Ports

The Switch is equipped with Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP28/SFP+) ports that can be used to connect various
other networking devices to this switch that do not support the standard RJ45 wiring connection. These ports are
generally used to connect this switch to optical fiber connections and can be used to connect devices to the Switch
over great distances. The maximum distance that the RJ45 wiring connection can reach is 100 meters. Fiber optic
connections can span several kilometers.
