4.2.1
Mount the Switch
The switch can be placed on a flat surface and stacked or mounted in a 19” EIA
rack. Refer to “Dimensions” on page A-3 for weight and dimensional
specifications. Adhesive rubber feet are provided for surface mounts. Without the
rubber feet, the switch occupies 1U of space in an EIA rack. Rack mounting
requires the use of a rail kit which is available from QLogic.
WARNING!!
Mount switches in the rack so that the weight is distributed evenly.
An unevenly loaded rack can become unstable possibly resulting in
equipment damage or personal injury.
AVERTISSEMENT!!
Installer les commutateurs dans l’armoire informatique de sorte
que le poids soit réparti uniformément. Une armoire informatique
déséquilibré risque d'entraîner des blessures ou d'endommager
l'équipement.
WARNUNG!!
Switches so in das Rack einbauen, dass das Gewicht gleichmäßig
verteilt ist. Ein Rack mit ungleichmäßiger Gewichtsverteilung kann
schwanken/umfallen und Gerätbeschädigung oder Verletzung
verursachen.
CAUTION!
If the switch is mounted in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
make sure that the operating temperature inside the rack enclosure
does not exceed the maximum rated ambient temperature. Refer
to “Environmental” on page A-4.
Do not restrict chassis air flow. Allow 16 cm (6.5 in) minimum
clearance at the front and rear of the switch (surface mount) or
rack for service access and ventilation.
Multiple rack-mounted units connected to the AC supply circuit
may overload that circuit or overload the AC supply wiring.
Consider the power source capacity and the total power usage of
all switches on the circuit. Refer to “Electrical” on page A-3.
Reliable grounding in the rack must be maintained from the switch
chassis to the AC power source.
