Hardware Installation and
Connection
This chapter shows you how to install and connect the Switch.  
2.1  Freestanding Installation 
Make sure the Switch is clean and dry.
Set the Switch on a smooth, level surface strong enough to support the weight of the 
Switch and the connected cables. Make sure there is a power outlet nearby. 
Make sure there is enough clearance around the Switch to allow air circulation and the 
attachment of cables and the power cord.  
Remove the adhesive backing from the rubber feet.
Attach the rubber feet to each corner on the bottom of the Switch. These rubber feet help 
protect the Switch from shock or vibration and ensure space between devices when 
stacking.
