Allied Telesis recommends installing the power supplies and optional
XEM2 Line Card before installing the switch on a wall. For instructions,
refer to “Installing PWR600 AC Power Supplies” on page 82 and “Installing
an Optional XEM2 Ethernet Line Card” on page 86.
1. Place the switch in a table.
2. Install the four brackets with sixteen screws that come with the switch
to the sides of the unit, as shown in Figure 70 on page 112.
3. Have two people hold the switch on the concrete wall at the selected
location for the device while you use a pencil or pen to mark the wall
with the locations of the four screw holes in the four brackets. Refer to
Figure 72 on page 116.
Please follow these guidelines as you position the switch on the wall:
 Position the switch so that the front panel is either on the left or the
right. Refer to Figure 65 on page 104. You may not install the
switch with the front panel facing up or down.
 Leave sufficient space from other devices or walls so that you can
access the front and back panels. Refer to “Recommended
Minimum Wall Area Dimensions” on page 105.
