WARNING
Disconnect power before servicing. You might be shocked!
The rack-mounted SCSI Switch requires 2 EIA units of vertical space.
One EIA is equal to 1.75 inches. EIA is the acronym for Electrical Industry
Association. Each EIA has a three-hole pattern for mounting rails. Remove
the rack filler panel from the location the device is to be installed in.
