Installation Procedures
Installing the Switch
4. Mount the Switch
After the switch passes self test, it is ready to be mounted in a stable location.
The 2910al Switches can be mounted in these ways:
Rack or Cabinet Mounting
The 2910al Switches are designed to be mounted in any EIA-standard 19-inch
telco rack or communication equipment cabinet. Note the mounting brackets
have multiple mounting holes and can be rotated allowing for a wide variety
of mounting options. Secure the rack in accordance with the manufacture’s
safety guidelines.
WARNING For safe operation, please read the mounting precautions on
page 2-3, 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.
Rack Mounting the Switch
1. Use a #1 Phillips (cross-head) screwdriver and attach the mounting
brackets to the switch with the included 8-mm M4 screws. Remember to
use the correct accessory kit for your switch, see page 2-1.
