The BlackDiamond 8800 series chassis fits into a standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) rack. You can install the
switch either flush against the back of the rack or in a mid-mount position to give you more access
behind the rack.
Read the information in this chapter thoroughly before you attempt to install the
BlackDiamond 8800 series switch.
Before you lift a BlackDiamond 8800 series chassis, make sure the chassis is empty to prevent
unnecessary weight. This will also prevent damage to the system components due to possible chassis flex when it
is being lifted.
