Site Requirements Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation Warning Voltages that present a shock hazard may exist on Power over Ethernet (PoE) circuits if interconnections are made using uninsulated exposed metal contacts, conductors, or terminals. Avoid using such interconnection methods, unless the exposed metal parts are located within a restricted access location and users and service people who are authorized within the restricted access location are made aware of the hazard. A restricted access area can be accessed only through the use of a special tool, lock and key or other means of security.

This rack-mount kit is not suitable for use in the following situations: • Racks with obstructions (such as power strips) that could impair access to the switch Before rack-mounting the switch, ensure the following: • The equipment rack is the proper size. - The width of the rack, between the two front-mounting strips or rails, must be 17.75 inches (45.09 cm). - The depth of the rack, between the front- and rear-mounting strips, must be at least 19.25 inches (48.9 cm) but not more than 32.5 inches (82.5 cm). - The rack must have sufficient vertical clearance to insert the chassis. The chassis height is 1 U (1.75 inches (4.45 cm)). • The equipment rack is stable and in no danger of falling over. - Ensure that the shelf is constructed to support the weight and dimensions of the chassis. - We recommend that you bolt the rack to the floor. - Mount the unit at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.

Warning
Voltages that present a shock hazard may exist on Power over Ethernet (PoE) circuits if
interconnections are made using uninsulated exposed metal contacts, conductors, or terminals.
Avoid using such interconnection methods, unless the exposed metal parts are located within a
restricted access location and users and service people who are authorized within the restricted
access location are made aware of the hazard.
A restricted access area can be accessed only
through the use of a special tool, lock and key or other means of security.

Rack-Mounting Guidelines
A rack-mount kit (69-2037-xx) is included in the accessory kit for mounting the switch in a standard
19-inch (48.3 cm) equipment rack. This rack-mount kit is not suitable for use in the following situations:
Racks with obstructions (such as power strips) that could impair access to the switch
Before rack-mounting the switch, ensure the following:
The equipment rack is the proper size.
The width of the rack, between the two front-mounting strips or rails, must be 17.75 inches
(45.09 cm).
The depth of the rack, between the front- and rear-mounting strips, must be at least 19.25 inches
(48.9 cm) but not more than 32.5 inches (82.5 cm).
The rack must have sufficient vertical clearance to insert the chassis. The chassis height is 1 U
(1.75 inches (4.45 cm)).
The equipment rack is stable and in no danger of falling over.
Ensure that the shelf is constructed to support the weight and dimensions of the chassis.
We recommend that you bolt the rack to the floor.
Mount the unit at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.
