The V300 Virtual Port Extender comes with two mounting brackets and screws for attaching them.

Mount the equipment in a standard equipment rack, in either a front-mount or mid-mount

conﬁguration, in the same way you would mount a switch.

To install a V300 Virtual Port Extender, follow these steps:

1. Attach the mounting brackets to the sides of the port extender using four screws (included) for each

bracket.

2. Align the holes in the brackets with the rack post holes.

3. Secure the port extender to each post with rack-mounting screws (not provided).

4. Connect an AC power cord to the AC power input socket on the port extender and to an AC power

outlet.

5. When power is connected, verify that the SYS LED on the port extender turns green.

If the SYS LED does not turn green, verify that the power source is on and the connection was made

properly.

6. Optionally, connect the port extender to a redundant power source, depending on the model.

The following mounting kits are available for non-PoE V300 models:
