Chapter 3
Installing the Switch
Installing the Switch Chassis in the Rack
Installing the Switch Chassis in the Rack
Note
If you are not installing the Catalyst 6509-NEB switch, Catalyst 6509-NEB-A switch, or Catalyst 6513
switch in the rack, see
“Installing the Stabilizer Kit” section on page 3-16
.
Note
Chassis can be mounted in equipment racks that meet ANSI/EIA 310-D and ETS 300-119 standards.
You are now ready to install the switch chassis in the rack.
Tip
We recommend that you have a third person to assist in this procedure.
Caution
For easier installation, the chassis should be empty when you install it in the rack.
Warning
Two people are required to lift the chassis. To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with your
legs, not your back.
Statement 164
To install the switch chassis in the equipment rack, follow these steps:
Step 1
With a person standing at each side of the chassis, grasp the chassis handle with one hand, and use the
other hand near the back of the chassis for balance. Slowly lift the chassis in unison. Avoid sudden twists
or moves to prevent injury.
Step 2
Position the chassis in the rack as follows:
a.
If the front of the chassis (front panel) is at the front of the rack, insert the rear of the chassis between
the mounting posts, resting the chassis on the shelf brackets, and then carefully slide the chassis into
the rack.
b.
If the rear of the chassis is at the front of the rack, insert the front of the chassis between the
mounting posts, resting the chassis on the shelf brackets, and then carefully slide the chassis into the
rack.
Step 3
Align the mounting holes in the L bracket with the mounting holes in the equipment rack.
