Using the BayStack 303 and 304 Ethernet Switches

If you install the BayStack switches in a rack, ground the rack to the same grounding electrode used by the power service in the area. The ground path must be permanent and must not exceed 1 ohm of resistance from the rack to the grounding electrode.

Installation Procedure

This section provides the requirements and instructions for installing the BayStack switches on a flat surface or in a standard 19-inch utility rack. Both switches can be shipped with either a metal chassis or a plastic chassis. The installation instruction differs slightly depending on the type of chassis you receive. Therefore, prior to installing your switch, determine which type of chassis you have.

Installing the BayStack Switches on a Flat Surface

The BayStack switches can be mounted onto any appropriate flat surface that can safely support the weight of a switch and its attached cables, as long as there is adequate space around the unit for ventilation and access to cable connectors.

Caution: When this device is installed in a stack on a shelf or tabletop, the accumulated weight of the port cables increases with the height of the shelf or tabletop.

To install the switch on a tabletop, shelf, or any other flat surface, follow these steps:

1.Set the switch on the flat surface and check for proper ventilation.

Allow at least 2 inches on each side for proper ventilation and 5 inches at the back for power cord clearance.

2.Attach rubber feet to each marked location on the bottom of the metal chassis.

The plastic chassis does not require rubber feet.

3.Attach all devices to the ports.

See “Attaching Devices to the BayStack Switch” on page 2-8 through page 2-11.
