(Typical Switch configuration)

Where to place the Switch:

The enclosure of the Switch is designed for stand-alone or rack-mount configuration. The Switch can be mounted to a standard 19-inch server rack using the included rack-mount brackets and screws.

Consider the following when deciding where to place the Switch:

whether or not you intend to use the front-panel port selectors

the lengths of the cables attached to your keyboard, monitor, and mouse

the location of your servers in relation to your console

the lengths of the cables you use to connect your servers to the Switch
