Warning To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:

•This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.

•When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.

•If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the unit in the rack. Statement 1006

Note Installing the switch in a 24-inch rack requires an optional bracket kit that is not included with the switch. You can order a kit containing the 24-inch rack-mounting brackets and hardware from Cisco. The kit part number is RCKMNT-1RU= (700-12398-XX).
