Depending on your installation, the following accessory kits may be
required:
• One 3510-Pair Rack Mount Kit — this accessory kit is used to connect two
ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+ switches together side-by-side and
mount them in a 19 inch rack. The kit includes all necessary brackets and
fasteners and must be ordered separately (Order Code AL3511002-E6)
• One Spare Rack Mount Kit – this kit can be used to mount an ERS 3510GT
or ERS 3510GT–PWR+ under a desk or on to another surface. This kit is
also used as a replacement rack mount kit for ERS 3524GT,
ERS 3524GT-PWR+, ERS 3526T, ERS 3526T-PWR+, ERS 3549GTS,
ERS 3549GTS-PWR+, ERS 3550T, or 3550T-PWR+ systems
(Order Code AL3511001-E6)
• One 3510-Single Rack Mount Kit – this kit is used to mount a single ERS
3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+ switch in a standard 19 inch rack. Kit
includes all mounting brackets and fasteners and must be ordered
separately (Order Code AL3511003-E6)
Note: There is a Kensington Lock slot on the back of each switch. Carefully
remove the plastic plug from the hole if you need to use the K-Lock slot of an
ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+ unit.

(Optional) Prepare the rack:
a. Provide the equivalent of one rack of vertical space for each switch in an
EIA or IEC-standard 19-inch (48.2-centimeter) equipment rack.
b. Ensure that the equipment rack is stable and securely attached to a
permanent structure.
c. Ground the rack to the same grounding electrode used by the power service
in the area. The ground path must be permanent and must not exceed 1
Ohm of resistance from the rack to the grounding electrode. AVAYA
recommends using a filter or surge suppressor.

When you install the switch into a network, ensure you use the
following cables:
• Category 5E or higher specification cabling should be used
for 1 Gbps/1000 Mbps operation
• RJ-45 and DB-9 console port cables and adaptors are as follows:

Table/Shelf mounting
If you are mounting the ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+ switch on a table
or shelf, attach the rubber feet to the device as indicated.
Set the device on a flat surface near an AC power source, making sure there
is at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) of space on all sides for proper air flow, and at
least 5 inches (12.7 cm) at the back for power
cord clearance.

Rack mounting pairs -
ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+
To rack mount a pair of ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+ switches:
Use the 3510-Pair Rack Mount Accessory Kit (AL3511002-E6) to mount two
ERS 3510GT or ERS 3510GT-PWR+ switches together side-by-side in a
standard 19" rack.
Note: When mounting two 3510GT-PWR+ units side by side in an equipment
rack, run the switches in high power mode to ensure adequate airflow.
1. Ensure power is disconnected from the switch.
2. Connect the two ERS 3510GT switches together by opening the hinged
bracket to 90° and attaching it to each ERS 3510GT switch with three M4
flat head screws (included), as shown below.
3. Attach the standard rack mount bracket ears to the outer end of each
switch as shown below.
4. Once the switches are joined together, fold the hinged
bracket inward.
5. Perform one of the following:
• To connect two ERS 3510GT or two 3510GT-PWR+ switches together
use the rear bracket as shown below, with four M4 pan head screws to
secure the switches at the rear. Once the rear bracket has been installed,
the switches can be installed in
the rack.
• To connect one ERS 3510GT switch and one ERS 3510GT-PWR+
switch together use the offset rear bracket with four M4 pan head
screws to join the switches at the rear. Once the rear bracket has been
installed, the switches can be installed in the rack.
Note: If you are mounting a mix of ERS 3510GT and ERS
3510GT-PWR+ units side by side, ensure that the ERS 3510GT unit is
mounted on the LEFT side (when viewed from the front) for
adequate airflow.
