Step 2: Installing the Switch You can install your NETGEAR Model FSM726 Managed Switch on a flat surface or in a standard 19-inch rack. Installing the Switch on a Flat Surface The switch ships with four self-adhesive rubber footpads. Stick one rubber footpad on each of the four concave spaces on the bottom of the switch. The rubber footpads cushion the switch against shock/vibrations. Installing the Switch in a Rack To install the switch in a rack, use the following procedure (and refer to Figure 3-1). To perform this procedure, you need the 19-inch rack-mount kit supplied with your switch. 1. Attach the supplied mounting brackets to the side of the switch. 2. Insert the screws provided in the rack-mount kit through each bracket and into the bracket mounting holes in the switch. 3. Tighten the screws with a #1 Phillips screwdriver to secure each bracket. 4. Align the mounting holes in the brackets with the holes in the rack, and insert two pan-head screws with nylon washers through each bracket and into the rack. 5. Tighten the screws with a #2 Phillips screwdriver to secure the switch in the rack. Figure 3-1.
