Installing on a Flat Surface
The switch can be installed on any appropriate level surface that can safely 
support the weight of the hubs and their attached cables. There must be 
adequate space around the switch for ventilation and access cable 
connectors.
To install the switch on a flat surface, complete the following steps:
1
Set the switch on the flat surface and check for proper ventilation.
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 in a Rack
The switch can be installed in most standard 19-inch racks.
 NOTE: For racks that 
are not pre-threaded, 
cage nuts are provided.
To install the switch in a rack, complete the following steps:
1
Use the supplied screws to attach a mounting bracket to each side of 
the switch.
2
Position the switch 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.
