Installing the Switch
Installation Procedures
3. Mount the Switch
After you have verified that the switch passes its self test, you are
ready to mount the switch in a stable location. The switch can be
mounted on a horizontal surface.
Horizontal Surface Mounting
Place the switch on a table or other horizontal surface. The switch
comes with rubber feet in the accessory kit that can be used to help
keep the switch from sliding on the surface.
Attach the rubber feet to the four corners on the bottom of the switch
within the embossed angled lines. Use a sturdy surface in an unclut-
tered area. You may want to secure the networking cables and switch
power cord to the table leg or other part of the surface structure to
help prevent tripping over the cords.
4. Connect the Switch to a Power Source
1. Plug the included AC power adapter into the switch’s power
connector and into a nearby AC power source.
2. Re-check the LEDs during self test. See “Self Test LED Behavior:”
on page 2-7.
Note
Make sure the air flow is not restricted around the sides of
the switch.
