5. Mount the Switch
After the switch passes self test, the switch is ready to be mounted in a stable location. The
3810M switches can be mounted in these ways:
• in a rack or cabinet
• on a horizontal surface
For other mounting options contact your local Hewlett Packard Enterprise authorized network
reseller or Hewlett Packard Enterprise representative.
Rack or Cabinet Mounting
These switches are designed to be mounted in any EIA-standard 2-post 19-inch telco rack or
4-post communication equipment cabinet.
WARNING! For safe operation, please read the mounting precautions on“ Installation
Precautions:” (page 31), before mounting a switch.
Equipment Cabinet Note:
The 12-24 screws supplied with the switch are the correct threading for standard EIA/TIA open
19-inch racks. If you are installing the switch in an equipment cabinet such as a server cabinet,
use the clips and screws that came with the cabinet in place of the 12-24 screws that are supplied
with the switch.
Complete step 1, and plan which four holes you will be using in the cabinet and install all four
clips. Then proceed to step 2.
