Installing the Switch on a Plywood Base
After the plywood base for the switch has been installed on the wall, install
the switch. See “Reviewing Safety Precautions” on page 88 and
“Choosing a Site for the Switch” on page 93 before performing this
procedure. Allied Telesis recommends a minimum of two people for this
procedure.
Warning
The device is heavy. Always ask for assistance before moving or
lifting it to avoid injuring yourself or damaging the equipment.
Warning
The device should be installed on the wall by a qualified building
contractor. Serious injury to yourself or others or damage to the
equipment can result if it is not properly fastened to the wall. E105
Note
If the plastic feet have been installed, you must remove them to
install the switch on a plywood base.
To install the switch on a plywood base, perform the following procedure:
1. Place the switch on a table.
2. For the GS980MX/28 and GS980MX/28PSm switches, install two wall/
equipment rack brackets to the sides of the unit with the eight
M4x6mm screws included with the switch. Refer to Figure 72 on page
132. For the GS980MX/10HSm, GS980MX/18HSm, GS980MX/52 and
GS980MX/52PSm switches, install four wall/equipment rack brackets
to the sides of the unit with the sixteen M4x6mm screws included with
the switch. Refer to Figure 73 on page 133.
Note
The GS980MX/10HSm, GS980MX/18HSm, GS980MX/52 and
GS980MX/52PSm switches require four brackets to be installed due
to their weights. Whereas, the GS980MX/28 and GS980MX/28PSm
switches only require two brackets because they are lighter.
