Mounting Instructions

 NOTICE: Before you install the PowerConnect™ RPS-600, consult your 

PowerConnect switch User's Guide to confirm that your switch supports the 
PowerConnect RPS-600 Redundant Power Bank.

Installing the PowerConnect RPS-600 on a Flat Surface

You can install the RPS-600 on any appropriate level surface that can safely 
support the weight of the switches, the RPS-600, and their attached cables. 
There must be adequate space around the RPS-600 for ventilation and to 
access cable connectors.

To install the RPS-600 on a flat surface:

1

Set the RPS-600 on the flat surface and check for proper ventilation.

 NOTICE: Allow at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) on each side for proper ventilation 

and 5 inches (12.7 cm) at the back for power-cord clearance.

2

Attach rubber feet on each marked location on the bottom of 
the chassis.

The rubber feet are optional, but recommended to keep the unit 
from slipping.

Installing the PowerConnect RPS-600 in a Rack

The RPS-600 can be installed in most standard 19-inch racks.

 NOTE: For racks that are not prethreaded, cage nuts are provided.

To install the RPS-600 in a rack:

1

Use the supplied screws to attach a mounting bracket to each side of 
the RPS-600.

2

Position the RPS-600 in the rack and align the holes in the mounting 
bracket with the holes in the rack.

3

Insert and tighten two screws appropriate for your rack through each of 
the mounting brackets.
