Chapter 2 Switch Installation

Mounting the Switch

With a Mounting Tray

The mounting kit (part number CMP-MGNT-TRAY=) is optional. You can order it when you order your switch, or you can order it later from your Cisco representative.

The mounting kit ships contents:

Two number-10 Phillips pan-head screws

Three number-8 Phillips pan-head screws

Mounting tray

Magnet

You can use the mounting tray by itself with mounting screws, or with a magnet.

Mounting Tray with Screws

You can use the mounting tray to secure the switch:

On a desk or shelf

Under a desk or shelf

On a wall

Caution Do not wall-mount the switch with its front panel facing up. Following safety regulations, wall-mount the switch with its front panel facing down or to the side, to allow sufficient airflow and to provide easier access to the cables.

This example shows you how to mount the switch on a desk or shelf. You can use a similar procedure to mount the switch under a desk or on a wall.

Step 1 Place the mounting tray on the desk.

Step 2 Use a 0.144-in. (3.7 mm) or a #27 drill bit to drill three 1/2-in. (12.7 mm) holes in the desk. See Figure 2-8.

Step 3 Insert the three number-8 Phillips pan-head screws in the slots on the mounting tray, and tighten them.
