Chapter 6 Install Stratix 8000 and 8300 Switches
Mount the Switch
You can mount the switch on one of the following:
• DIN rail, as described on
page 166
• Wall or panel, as described on
page 168
Mount the Switch on a DIN Rail
Follow these steps to mount the switch on a DIN rail.
1. Insert a sharp tool, such as a screwdriver, in the space next to the tab,
push gently to release the catch, then turn the screwdriver to push the
tab out.
IMPORTANT The switch must be mounted in an upright orientation, as shown in these
instructions. Alternative mounting orientations are not supported.
WARNING: When using DIN rail mounting, additional grounding is also
accomplished through the DIN rail to chassis ground. Use zinc-plated
yellow-chromate steel DIN rail to assist in proper grounding. The use of other
DIN rail materials (for example, aluminum or plastic)) that can corrode,
oxidize, or are poor conductors, can impede proper grounding. Secure DIN
rail to mounting surface approximately every 200 mm (7.8 in.) using end-
anchors appropriately and using a washer plate along the entire length of
the DIN rail.
