Table 22: Cabinet Requirements and Specicaons
(Connued)
Cabinet Requirement Guidelines
Cabinet airow requirements When you mount the device in a cabinet, ensure that venlaon through
the cabinet is sucient to prevent overheang.
• Ensure adequate cool air supply to dissipate the thermal output of the
device or devices.
• Ensure that the hot air exhaust of the chassis exits the cabinet without
recirculang into the device. An open cabinet (without a top or doors)
that employs hot air exhaust extracon from the top ensures the best
airow through the chassis. If the cabinet contains a top or doors,
perforaons in these elements assist with removing the hot air exhaust.
•
Install the device in the cabinet in a way that maximizes the open space
on the side of the chassis that has the hot air exhaust.
•
Route and dress all cables to minimize the blockage of airow to and
from the chassis.
•
Ensure that the spacing of rails and adjacent cabinets is such that there
is proper clearance around the device and cabinet.
• A cabinet larger than the minimum required provides beer airow and
reduces the chance of overheang.
Requirements for Mounng an EX2300 Switch On or Under a Desk or
Other Level Surface or On a Wall
You can mount the switch on a desk or other level surface. You can mount the EX2300-C switch under a
desk or other level surface. You can mount EX2300 switches except the EX2300-24MP and
EX2300-48MP models on a wall. When choosing a locaon, allow at least 6 in. (15.2 cm) of clearance
between the front and back of the chassis and adjacent equipment or walls.
Ensure that the wall onto which the switch is installed is stable and securely supported.
If you are mounng the switch in sheetrock (wall board with a gypsum plaster core) or in wall board not
backed by wall studs, use hollow wall anchors capable of supporng the combined weight of two fully
loaded chassis. Insert the screws into wall studs wherever possible to provide added support for the
chassis.
