Getting Started Guide 7
2
Insert the supplied bolts into the rack-mounting holes and tighten with a screwdriver.
3
Repeat the process for the rack-mounting bracket on the other side of the switch.
4
Insert the switch into the 48.26 cm (19 inch) rack, ensuring that the rack-mounting holes on
the switch line up to the mounting holes in the rack.
5
Secure the switch to the rack with either the rack bolts or cage nuts and cage nut bolts with
washers (depending on the kind of rack you have). Fasten the bolts on bottom before
fastening the bolts on top.
NOTICE: Make sure that the ventilation holes are not obstructed.
CAUTION: Make sure that the supplied rack bolts fit the pre-threaded holes in the rack.
Installing as a Free-standing Switch
NOTICE: We strongly recommend mounting the switch in a rack.
Install the switch on a flat surface if you are not installing it in a rack. The surface must be able
to support the weight of the switch and the switch cables. The switch is supplied with four
self-adhesive rubber pads.
1
Attach the self-adhesive rubber pads on each location marked on the bottom of the switch.
2
Set the switch on a flat surface, and make sure that it has proper ventilation by leaving 5 cm
(2 inches) on each side and 13 cm (5 inches) at the back.
Connecting a Switch to a Terminal
1
Connect the DB9 connector of the RJ-45-to-DB9 serial cable to a VT100 terminal or to a
computer running VT100 terminal emulation software.
2
Connect the RJ-45 connector at the other end to the top RJ-45 port on the rear panel of the
switch. For more information about the location of the console port, see Figure 3.
