Mounting an EX2300 Switch on a Desk or Other Level Surface
You can mount an EX2300 switch on a desk or other level surface byusing the four rubber
feet that are preinstalled on the switch. The rubber feet stabilize the chassis.
Before mounting the switch on a desk or other level surface:
•
Verify that the site meets the requirements described in “Site Preparation Checklist
for EX2300 Switches” on page 51.
•
Place the desk in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearance for airflow and
maintenance, and secure it to the building structure.
•
Read “General Safety Guidelines and Warnings” on page 223, with particular attention
to “Chassis Lifting Guidelines” on page 232.
