INSTALLING THE SWITCH

Mounting

A TigerSwitch 10/100 unit can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a desktop or shelf. Mounting instructions for each type of site follow.

Installing Optional Modules: Before mounting the switch, be sure you install any optional modules. If you have purchased optional slide-in 1000BASE-SX media expansion modules, install these modules now, following the instructions included with the package.

Rack Mounting

Before rack mounting the switch, pay particular attention to the following factors:

◆Temperature: Since the temperature within a rack assembly may be higher than the ambient room temperature, check that the rack-environment temperature is within the specified operating temperature range. (See page C-2.)

◆Mechanical Loading: Do not place any equipment on top of a rack-mounted unit

◆Circuit Overloading: Be sure that the supply circuit to the rack assembly is not overloaded.

◆Grounding: Rack-mounted equipment should be properly grounded. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the mains.
