Mounting

A TigerStack 10G unit can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment
rack or on a desktop or shelf. Mounting instructions for each type of site
follow.

Rack Mounting

Before rack mounting the switch, pay particular attention to the following
factors:

◆ Temperature: Since the temperature within a rack assembly may be

higher than the ambient room temperature, check that the
rack-environment temperature is within the specified operating
temperature range. (See page C-2.)

◆ Mechanical Loading: Do not place any equipment on top of a

rack-mounted unit.

◆ Circuit Overloading: Be sure that the supply circuit to the rack

assembly is not overloaded.

◆ Grounding: Rack-mounted equipment should be properly grounded.

Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than
direct connections to the mains.
