Chapter 3 Switch Installation (8-Port Switches) Installing the Switch Rack-Mounting This section is specific to the Catalyst 2960 8-port switches. For information applicable to the other Catalyst 2960 switches, see Chapter 2, "Switch Installation (24- and 48-Port Switches)." Installing the Catalyst 2960 8-port switches in a 19-inch rack requires an optional bracket kit that is not included with the switch. You can order a kit containing the 19-inch rack-mounting brackets and hardware from Cisco. The kit part number is RCKMNT-19-CMPCT=. 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.
