NOTE
You need a #2 Phillips screwdriver for installation.

Before mounting the switch in a rack, 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.

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.
