Rack Mounting
Before rack mounting the sw itch, pay particular attention to the following
factors:
Temperature: Since the temperature within a rack assembly may be
higher than the ambient room temperature, check that the
rack-environment temperature is within the specified operating
temperature range. (See page C-2.)
Mechanical Loading: Do not place any equipment on top of a
rack-mounted unit.
Circuit Overloading: Be sure that the supply circuit to the rack
assembly is not overloaded.
Grounding: Rack-mounted equipment should be properly grounded.
Particular attention should be given to supp ly connections other than
direct connections to the mains.
To rack-mount devices:
1. Attach the brackets to the device using the screws provided in the
Bracket Mounting Kit.
