4.2.1
Mount the Switch
The switch can be placed on a flat surface and stacked or mounted in a 19” EIA
rack. Refer to “Dimensions” on page A-3 for weight and dimensional
specifications. The top of each chassis has dimples to receive the rubber feet of a
second chassis stacked on top. Without the rubber feet, the switch occupies 1U of
space in an EIA rack. Mounting rails are required for rack installation and are
available through QLogic Corporation.
WARNING!!
Mount switches in the rack so that the weight is distributed
evenly. An unevenly loaded rack can become unstable possibly
resulting in equipment damage or personal injury.
AVERTISSEMENT!!
Installer les commutateurs dans l’armoire informatique de sorte
que le poids soit réparti uniformément. Une armoire informatique
déséquilibré risque d'entraîner des blessures ou d'endommager
l'équipement.
WARNUNG!!
Switches so in das Rack einbauen, dass das Gewicht
gleichmäßig verteilt ist. Ein Rack mit ungleichmäßiger
Gewichtsverteilung kann schwanken/umfallen und
Gerätbeschädigung oder Verletzung verursachen.
