HP Aruba 6400 Series

Space
For easy installation and maintenance, make sure the rack has enough space to accommodate the switch
and normal switch maintenance, such as installing or removing management modules, line modules, and
fan trays. For dimensions, see
Product dimensions.
Product weight support
Make sure the oor can support the total weight of the rack, chassis, modules, power supplies, and all other
components and devices. Take into consideration system expansions (for example, adding more modules
and switches) when you plan the loading capacities.
For component weights, see Aruba 6400 product weights.
