Installing the Switch
If you have not chosen an orientation for the switch in the equipment rack,
review “Switch Orientations in the Equipment Rack” on page 110.
Please review the installation guidelines in “Choosing a Site for the
Switch” on page 97 before installing the switch in an equipment rack.
Caution
The chassis can be heavy and awkward to lift. Allied Telesis
recommends that you get assistance when mounting the chassis in
an equipment rack. E28
To install the switch in a 19-inch equipment rack, perform the following
procedure:
1. Place the switch on a level, secure surface.
2. Attach the two brackets to the sides of the switch in the selected
position, using the eight M4x6mm screws supplied with the unit. The
illustration in Figure 40 shows the installation of the brackets such that
the front panel of the switch is even with the front of the equipment
rack.
