See the following table for a comparison of the hardware installation methods of each GS1100
model:
Table 6 GS1100 Series Installation Comparison Table
Note: Ask an authorized technician to attach the Switch to the rack/ wall.
For GS1100-8HP, GS1100-16, GS110-24E and GS1100-10HP, you can place the Switch directly on
top of your desk or have it wall-mounted. For GS1100-16, GS1100-24 and GS110-24E, the size is
suitable for rack-mounting and you can refer to
Section 2.3.2 on page 15 for instruction. Take note
of the following:
• The Switch should have a minimum 25 mm space around it for ventilation.
• The Switch should be placed in a desk that has a level surface and that is able to support the
weight of the Switch.
To start using it, simply connect the power cables and turn on the Switch.
2.3.1 Wall Mounting
Do the following to attach your Switch to a wall.
See
Table 7 on page 14 for how far apart to place the screws.
1 Screw the two screws provided with your Switch into the wall (see the figure in step 2). Use screws
with 6 mm ~ 8 mm (0.24" ~ 0.31") wide heads. Do not screw the screws all the way in to the wall;
leave a small gap between the head of the screw and the wall.
The gap must be big enough for the screw heads to slide into the screw slots and the connection
cables to run down the back of the Switch.
Note: Make sure the screws are securely fixed to the wall and strong enough to hold the
weight of the Switch with the connection cables.
2 Align the holes on the back of the Switch with the screws on the wall. Hang the Switch on the
screws.
