Installing the switch
ARNING!
Before installing or moving the switch, remove the power cord.
You can install an HP 1420 switch in a 19-inch rack, on a horizontal surface, on a wall, or under a table.
Rack mounting
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
2. Verify that the rack is securely grounded and is stable.
3. Select mounting brackets for the switch.
{ The HP 1420-16G switch uses Type-A mounting brackets, as shown in Figure 1.
{ The 1420-24G-2SFP, 1420-24G-2SFP+ 10G Uplink, and 1420-24G-PoE+ (124W) switches use
Type-B mounting brackets, as shown in Figure 2.
4. Attach the mounting brackets to both side
s of the chassis with screws.
NOTE:
Mounting brackets are used only for securing the switch to the rack. A rack shelf on the rack is used
to bear the switch weight.
