Table C-1 lists the contents of the SSA-FB-MOUNTKIT mounting kit. 
Installation Site Requirements
If you plan to cable your SSA switch with SFP+ pluggable transceivers, you may need to have 3–4 
inches of clearance on the switch I/O port side of the SSA switch.
See Appendix E, Environmental Guidelines for environmental guidelines relating to the SSA 
switch installation.
The installation site must be within reach of the network cabling and meet the requirements listed 
below:
• Appropriate grounded power receptacles must be located within 7 feet of the site.
• A temperature of between 5°C (41°F) and 40°C (104°F) must be maintained at the installation 
site with fluctuations of less than 10°C (18°F) per hour.
For more information about flat surface installation or rack installation using the mounting 
brackets installed on the SSA switch, see “Installation” on page 2-1.
