Mounting the switch to a rack
Step1 Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap and make sure the rack is well grounded and is firm enough to
support the switch and cables.
Step2 Locate the positions for installing cage nuts on the rack post, and use a marker to mark the positions.
Step3 Install cage nuts at the marked positions.
Step4 Attach the mounting brackets to the switch. For more information, see “Attaching the mounting brackets
to the switch.”
Step5 Supporting the bottom of the switch, gently place the switch on the rack to a proper location.
Step6 Have another person to fix the mounting brackets with screws (anti-rust screws with cage nuts prepared
yourself) to the square holes of the rack to install the switch to the rack horizontally, as shown in Figure
19 or Figure 20.
NOTE:
The method for installing the V1910 Switch Series into a rack is similar. For how to install the switch to a
rack by using mounting brackets, see Figure 19 or Figure 20 according to the model and mounting
position of the mounting brackets as described in Table 14.
