2.2 Hardware Installation

See Table 1 on page 16 for a comparison of the hardware installation methods of each model:

Note: Ask an authorized technician to attach the Switch to the rack/wall.

Refer to Section 2.2.2 on page 22 for rack-mounting instructions. Take note of the following:

• The Switch should have a minimum 25 mm space around it for ventilation.

• The Switch should be placed on 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.

2.2.1 Wall Mounting

Do the following to attach your Switch to a wall.

See the following table for how far apart to place the screws.

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.

Align the holes on the back of the Switch with the screws on the wall. Hang the Switch on the

screws.
