Rack-Mount Placement

To mount the Switch in any standard-sized, 19-inch wide, 1U high rack, follow these instructions:

1.Place the Switch on a hard flat surface with the front panel facing you.

2.Attach a rack–mount bracket to one side of the Switch with the supplied screws. Then attach the other bracket to the other side.

3.Make sure the brackets are properly attached to the Switch.

4.Use the appropriate screws (not included) to securely attach the brackets to your rack.

5.Proceed to the section, “Connecting the Switch.”

Connecting the Switch

To connect network devices to the Switch, follow these instructions:

1.Make sure all the devices you will connect to the Switch are powered off.

2.For a 10/100Mbps devices, connect a Category 5 Ethernet network cable to one of the numbered ports on the Switch. For a 1000Mbps device, connect a Category 5e Ethernet network cable to one of the numbered ports on the Switch.

3.Connect the other end to a PC or other network device.

4.Repeat steps 2 and 3 to connect additional devices.

5.If you are using the mini-GBIC port, then connect the mini-GBIC module to the mini-GBIC port. For detailed instructions, refer to the module’s documentation.

6.If you will use the Switch’s console interface to configure the Switch, then connect the supplied serial cable to the Switch’s Console port, and tighten the captive retaining screws. Connect the other end to your PC’s serial port. (This PC must be running the VT100 terminal emulation software, such as HyperTerminal.)

7.Connect the supplied power cord to the Switch’s power port, and plug the other end into an electrical outlet.

IMPORTANT: Make sure you use the power cord that is supplied with the Switch. Use of a different power cord could damage the Switch.

Chapter 3: Connecting the Switch

IMPORTANT: Make sure you use the screws supplied with the mounting brackets. Using the wrong screws could damage the Switch and would invalidate your warranty.
