Chapter 2 Installation Installing the Switch on a Table or Shelf Installing the Switch on a Table or Shelf Follow these steps to install the switch on a table or shelf: Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Locate the adhesive strip with the rubber feet in the mounting-kit envelope. Attach the four rubber feet to the recessed areas on the bottom of the unit. Place the switch on the table or shelf near an AC power source. After the switch is mounted on the table or shelf, power the switch as described in "Powering On the Switch and Running POST" section on page 2-24. Installing the Switch in a Rack Warning To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety: • This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack. • When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack. • If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the unit in the rack. The supplied rack-mounting brackets can be attached to a 19-, 23-, or 24-inch rack. Figure 2-1 shows which mounting holes to use. Note Figure 2-1 shows brackets for two-rack-unit modular switches. Rack-mount points are similar on brackets for one-rack-unit switches. 78-6461-04 Catalyst 2900 Series XL Hardware Installation Guide 2-9

Warning
To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must
take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The
following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:
This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in
the rack.
When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the
bottom to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before
mounting or servicing the unit in the rack.
The supplied rack-mounting brackets can be attached to a 19-, 23-, or 24-inch
rack.
Figure 2-1
shows which mounting holes to use.
