After the switch is mounted on the desk or shelf, do these tasks to complete the installation:

1.Power on the switch. See the “Verifying Switch Operation” section on page 3-6.

2.Connect to a 10/100 or 10/100/1000 port, and run Express Setup. See the switch getting started guide for instructions.

3.Connect to the front-panel ports. See the “Connecting to the 10/100 and 10/100/1000 Ports” section on page 2-18, the “Connecting to SFP Modules” section on page 2-19, and the “Connecting to a Dual-Purpose Port” section on page 2-22to complete the installation.

For configuration instructions about using the CLI setup program, go to Appendix C, “Configuring the Switch with the CLI-Based Setup Program.”

Under the Desk- or Shelf-Mounting (with Mounting Screws)

This section is specific to the Catalyst 2960 8-port switches. For information applicable to the other Catalyst 2960 switches, see Chapter 2, “Switch Installation (24- and 48-Port Switches).”

Follow these steps to install the switch under a desk or shelf:

Step 1 Locate the screw template. The template is used to align the mounting screw holes and is also used as a guide to make sure the screws are installed under the desk or shelf with proper clearance.

Step 2 Position the screw template underneath the desk or shelf so that the two side-by-side slots face the front of the desk or shelf, as shown in Figure 3-3. This ensures that the power cord faces the rear of the desk or shelf after the switch is installed.

Step 3 Peel the adhesive strip off the bottom of the screw template, and attach it to the underside of the desk or shelf.
