G3G124-24 Optional PoE Module Installation Considerations
InstallingPoEcapabilityintheG3G124‐24baseswitchrequiressignificantdisassemblyofthe
switch.Beforeinstallingthecard,youmustuninstallthecomponentsdescribedinthischapter,
includingthefollowing:
1. Unpluggingallpowerandnetworkconnectionstotheswitch.
2. RemovingIOMs.
3. Removingpowersupplies.
4. Removingandretainingscrewssecuringtheswitch
covertopandcompactflashslot
coverplate.
5. Removingtheswitchcover.

information.
InstallingPoEcapabilityinaG3G‐24TXIOMrequiresthatyoufirstuninstallthemodule,if
necessary,andfollowtheproceduredescribed
in“InstallinganOptionalPoEModuleinthe
G3G124‐24Switch”onpage 2‐23.
Mounting the Switch
Performoneofthefollowingtoinstalltheswitch:
•IfyouareinstallingtheG‐SeriesEthernetswitchasafreestandingdevice,installtherubber
feetasdescribedin“PlacingtheSwitchonaFlatSurface”onpage 2‐4.
•Installtherack‐mountkitandmounttheswitchtoa48.26
‐centimeter(19‐inch)rackorother
securelocation,asdescribedin“InstallingtheSwitchintoaRack”onpage 2‐4.
Note: Instructions for installing PoE on the base switch do not apply to the G3G124-24P model
since it is already equipped with a PoE card.
