Rack Mounting 
Before rack mounting the switch, 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-1.) 
• 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 supply 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. 
 
Figure 3-2. Attaching the Brackets 
2.  Mount the device in the rack, using four rack-mounting screws (not provided).
