Standalone (Non-Rack Mounted) Installations
The chassis can also be placed unmounted on a stable, flat surface as a standalone unit. Be sure that the
surface can accommodate the full, populated weight of all switches being installed. (Approximate chassis
weights are provided in the technical specifications tables in the “OmniSwitch 6560 Chassis Details”
section.)
Be sure that adequate clearance has been provided for chassis airflow and that you have placed the chassis
within reach of all required AC outlets. For recommended airflow allowances, refer to page 3-25.
To prepare the chassis for tabletop installations, follow the steps below:
1 Insert the four (4) rubber feet (provided separately in the switch packaging) into the holes in the bottom
panel of the chassis.
2 Place the switch on the tabletop “right side up.”
Note. Never attempt to operate a switch while it is placed on its top or side.
3 Connect network and management cables as needed.
