Mounting the Switch on a Rack 

The DGS-1016T/1024T can easily be  mounted on a rack. Two  mounting ears 
are provided for this purpose. Make sure that the front panel  is e xposed in 
order to view the  LEDs. Please refer to the following illustrations: 

 

 

Mounting the Switch to a Rack   

 

1.

 

Attach the ears to each side of the Switch, using the screw-holes located 
on the side of the device. 

2.

 

Firmly attach the ears to the  rack as shown.  Please fo llow the usual safety 
precautions for rac k-mountable products.
