We recommend 100 mm spacing from the front panel of the unit to the rack
front or rack door. This provides enough room for you to route the cables
without bending them excessively.
For systems configured with the DC power option, this product is designed
for installation in a restricted access location. A readily accessible
disconnect must be incorporated in the wiring for the installation.
This product is sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). We recommend
that when you install or maintain the unit, you use proper ESD grounding
procedures and equipment.
Do not turn on an IP Application Switch until the management serial
console and/or the management network is connected to the unit.
Installing the IP Application Switch hardware
If you want to use the standard front mount to hold the IP Application
Switch unit, use the following procedure, To install the unit into a
standard-mount rack.
If you are using the optional rail mount kit to hold the unit, use the
procedures described in Appendix A, Installing an IP Application Switch
Using an Optional Rail-Mount Kit. The appendix describes how to perform
the two preliminary tasks of removing the standard mount hardware from
the unit and adding the rail hardware to the unit and the rack. The appendix
also describes how to install the unit into the rack.
A shelf or similar device is required to support the unit if a single person is
installing the unit. To prevent personal injury or damage to the unit, we
recommend that at least two people perform the installation.
To install the unit into a standard-mount rack
1. Lift the unit into place.
2. Secure the unit using the four rack-mounting screws that are
provided.
The unit must be securely fastened to the rack to provide adequate
stability and to prevent the unit from falling out of the rack.
Securing the rack with the screws also provides adequate grounding.
If the rack you have does not provide adequate support for the unit, you may
need a shelf kit. We recommend that you use a shelf kit created by the rack
manufacturer. (Some rack manufacturers provide shelf kits for their racks.)
