Horizontal surface mounting
IMPORTANT:
•
Reserve a clearance of 10 cm (3.9 in) around the chassis for heat dissipation.
•
Do not place heavy objects on the switch.
To mount the switch on a horizontal surface:
1.
Verify that the horizontal surface is sturdy and reliably grounded.
2.
Place the switch bottom up, and clean the round holes in the chassis bottom with a dry cloth.
3.
Attach the rubber feet to the four round holes in the chassis bottom.
4.
Place the switch upside up on the horizontal surface.

Wall mounting
Only the HP 1420-16G switch can be installed on a wall. The type of screws used to mount the switch on
the wall depends on the wall type. This section uses a concrete wall as an example.
The screws must be a minimum of 3 mm (0.12 in) and a maximum of 3.8 mm (0.15 in) in diameter. The
screw head must be a minimum of 6 mm (0.24 in) and a maximum of 9.8 mm (0.59 in) in diameter.

Wall-mounting anchor kit
To install the switch on a concrete wall:
1.
Drill two holes at the same height. Make sure the spacing in between is 160 mm (6.30 in), as
shown in
.
The hole depth and diameter depend on the wall anchors and screws you use. Make sure you can
push the anchors to their full depth in the holes.
