Note: Although the HP ProCurve 2610 Series switch is not a heavy component, you might need to install it in an elevated location in the rack. In such cases, HP recommends that two people be available to lift and install the ProCurve switch. 1.7 Orient the Components The HP ProCurve 2610 Series switch is mounted with its front panel (the network ports) facing to the rear of the rack.
