Installing the Switch without a Rack

First, attach the rubber feet included with the Switch if installing on a desktop or shelf. Attach these cushioning feet on the
bottom at each corner of the device. Allow enough ventilation space between the Switch and any other objects in the
vicinity.

Attaching Brackets to a Switch for Rack Mounting

The Switch is mounted to a standard 19" rack using mounting brackets. Use the following diagrams as a guide.
Fasten the mounting brackets to the Switch using the screws provided. With the brackets attached securely, the Switch
can be mounted in a standard rack, as shown below.
NOTE: Please review the Installation Guidelines above before installing the Switch in a rack. Make
sure there is adequate space around the Switch to allow for proper air flow, ventilation and cooling.
