Installing the switch using the SAN Switch Rack Mount Kit

This section provides instructions for installing the SAN Switch in the following HP custom racks:

HP System/e Rack

HP 10000 G2 Series rack, HP 9000 and HP 10000 Series racks

For optimal cable management, HP recommends that you install the SAN Switch Rack Mount Kit to allow the nonport side of the switch to slide out of the cool-air side of the rack. In this installation, the port side of the switch is set 12.7 cm (5 in) back from the edge of the rack, allowing a more gradual bend in the fiber optic cables.

NOTE:

The SAN Switch Rack Mount Kit installation requires one technician.

Obtain the following items:

SAN Switch

Power cables

#2 Phillips screwdriver

7/16-inch wrench or socket

Plenum (if required, see Table 3) to determine if you need to install a plenum prior to rack mounting your switch).
