Rack-mounting
Desktop-mounting
Step 1
Position the mounting bracket and screw on
the side of the switch. Tighten the screw with
a screwdriver. Repeat on the opposite side.
Step 2
Insert the switch into the 19-inch rack, and
align the bracket in the rack. Use either the
10-32 pan-head screws or the 12-24
pan-slotted screws to secure the switch in the
rack. Use the black Phillips screw to attach
the cable guide to either bracket.
Step 1
Place the switch upside-down on a flat
surface. Attach the four rubber pads to the
recessed areas on the bottom of the switch.
Place the switch on a desktop near an AC
power source.
If you are stacking switches, make sure that
the mounting feet of the upper switch align
with the recesses of the lower switch. Do not
stack more than four units high.
