Rack Mounting the Switch

Guidelines for Rackmount Installation

The installation site must be within reach of the network cabling and meet the requirements listed below:

Appropriate grounded power receptacles must be located within 152 cm (5 ft) of the location.

A temperature of between 5°C (41°F) and 40°C (104°F) must be maintained at the installation site with fluctuations of less than 10°C (18°F) per hour.

Note: To ensure proper ventilation and prevent overheating, leave a minimum clearance space of 5.1 cm (2.0 in.) at the left, right, and rear of the switch.

Warning: Before rack-mounting the device, ensure that the rack can support it without compromising stability. Otherwise, personal injury and/or equipment damage may result.

Advertencia: Antes de montar el equipo en el rack, asegurarse que el rack puede soportar su peso sin comprometer su propia estabilidad, de otra forma, daño personal o del equipo puede ocurrir.

Warnhinweis: Überzeugen Sie sich vor dem Einbau des Gerätes in das Rack von dessen Stabilität, ansonsten könnten Personenschäden oder Schäden am Gerät die Folge sein.
