astandard-sized, 19-inch wide for rack-mount placement, or mount it on a wall with the wall-mount brackets provided.

NOTE: The four supplied mounting brackets can be used for either wall mount or rack mount installations.

Desktop Placement

1.Attach the rubber feet to the recessed areas on the bottom of the Ethernet switch.

2.Place the Ethernet switch on a desktop near an AC power source.

CAUTION: Keep enough ventilation space for the Ethernet switch so it does not exceed the environmental restrictions mentioned in the specifications.

Rack-Mount Placement

To mount the Ethernet switch in any standard-sized, 19-inch wide, (each Ethernet switch requires 1RU of space in the rack), follow these instructions:

1.Remove the four front screws on one side of the Ethernet switch. Retain the screws for re- installation.

2.Place one of the supplied spacers on the side of the Ethernet switch so the four holes align to the screw holes.
