PC ServerSwitch 2x16

5.0 Installation

The PC ServerSwitch 2x16 unit is designed to occupy 3.50 inches of rack space. Sufficient space is required behind the rear panel of the unit to allow for attached cables bend radius (6 inches should be sufficient). It is helpful to plan ahead if additional units might be added to the configuration at some later date. If cascading (adding PC ServerSwitch 2x16’s) is to be used, make certain to leave enough space in the rack for additional units. The PC ServerSwitch 2x16 installation can be expanded at any time, without interfering with servers connected to existing switches.
