Installation overview
The console switch ships with rack-mounting brackets for
easy integration into the rack. Before installing the console
switch and other components in the rack cabinet (if they are
not already installed), stabilize the rack in a permanent
location. Begin installing the equipment at the bottom of the
rack cabinet, and then work to the top. Avoid uneven
loading or overloading of the rack cabinets.
Rack-mount safety instructions
When rack-mounting a console switch, consider the
following factors:
Elevated operating ambient temperature—If the
equipment is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the
rack environment might be greater than room ambient
temperature. Install the equipment in an environment
compatible with the operating temperature.
Reduced air flow—In the rack, the rate of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment must not
be compromised.
Mechanical loading—Avoid a potentially hazardous
condition caused by uneven mechanical loading by
carefully mounting the equipment in the rack.
Circuit overloading—When connecting the equipment
to the supply circuit, consider the effect that
overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent
protection and supply wiring. Consider the equipment
nameplate ratings when addressing this concern.
Reliable earthing—Maintain reliable earthing of rack-
mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply
connections other than direct connections to the branch
circuit, such as the use of power strips.
