Surface Mounting
The BayStack 350 switch can be mounted on any surface that can safely support the weight of the switch and attached cables, as long as there is adequate space around the unit for ventilation and access to cable connectors. You can use the mounting brackets supplied with the switch to secure it to the installation location.
Note: In most cases, it is not necessary to secure the BayStack 350 switch to a tabletop or shelf. However, if conditions warrant securing the switch (for example, in locations where the switch might accidentally fall from a shelf or overhead location), you can secure the switch using two mounting brackets (supplied).
