Cisco Systems SFS 7012 manual Rack-Mount the Switch

Chapter

Rack-Mount the Switch

Caution Because of its size and weight, it is recommended that either a lifting device or three (3) people install the SFS 7012.

To install the switch into the rack, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Clear the area of any unnecessary materials.

Step 2 Attach the clip of the ESD wristband (strap) to bare metal on the cabinet. Put the wristband around one wrist with the metal button against the skin.

Step 3 Lift the switch and, from the front of the cabinet, slide it onto the rails. The fans and power supplies are on the front of the chassis; leaf modules are to the rear.

Caution Never lift the switch with the handles on the spine modules, leaf modules, power supplies, and fan trays. These handles are not designed to support the weight of the SFS 7012.

Step 4 Tighten the screw on the bottom of each side of the chassis into the corresponding bottom hole of the front flange of each rail.
