Installing the switch
Installation procedure
Mounting under a horizontal surface.
You can use the same screws and a similar technique used to mount the switch on
the wall to mount the switch under a horizontal surface.
Caution The switch must be mounted only to a horizontal surface that is at least
1-inch (25.4 mm) thick.
1. Install two 3/4-inch (19 mm) M4 screws, (included) into the mounting surface.
The base of the screw head must be at a distance of approximately 2 mm from
the wall face. Position the screws 10 inches (254 mm) apart for the PS1810-24G
Switch. Use the wall anchors, if necessary.
2. Position the switch over the mounting screws, and then slide the switch sideways
to lock it in place.
3. Screw a third M4 screw (included) into the table against one side of the switch
to prevent it from sliding out of the locked position.
Mounting on top of a horizontal surface..
Place the switch on a table or other horizontal surface. The switch comes with rubber
feet in the accessory kit. The feet can be used to help keep the switch from sliding
on the surface.
Attach the rubber feet to the four corners on the bottom of the switch within the
embossed angled lines. Use a sturdy surface in an uncluttered area. Secure the
networking cables and switch power cord to the table leg or any other part of the
surface structure to help prevent tripping over the cords.
