1. Using standard twisted pair media, insert either end of the cable with an RJ-
45 plug into
the RJ-

3.3 Table-Top or Shelf Mounting
The LE14XXA-Series Switches can be easily mounted on a table-
top or any suitable
horizontal surface, and has four rubber feet to provide stability without scratching finished
surfaces.
3.3.1 Wall (or Vertical Surface) Mounting, 8-port LE1401A
Each LE1401A Switch is shipped with two metal mounting brackets (and screws) to
allow the unit to be mounted in nearly any desired orientation or position. The brackets are
attached to the m
etal hub case using one of the metal screws for each bracket, and attached to the
LE1401A through the round hole of the bracket. A user-
supplied screw attaches the bracket to
the mounting surface. It is recommended that the mounting brackets be attached to
two opposite
corners of the unit. When properly attached, the brackets will extend slightly below the base of
the unit to allow clearance for the rubber feet and for cooling fan exhaust space.
