Mounting
A TigerAccess 10/100 unit can be mounted in a standard 19-inch
equipment rack or on a desktop or shelf. Mounting instructions for each
type of site follow.
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.
To rack-mount devices:
1. Attach the brackets to the device using the screws provided in the
Bracket Mounting Kit.
