Rack or Surface Mounting
Use the cabling chart provided by your network administrator to determine whether the Base Unit will be
mounted on a surface or in a rack. If you are using the ATM Workgroup Switch Cabling Chart that came
with the
IBM 8250/8260/8285: Planning and Site Preparation Guide, GA33-0285, this information is found
in the top portion of that chart.
Notes:
1. Make sure that there is adequate space around the Base Unit to provide sufficient ventilation for the
unit. The Base Unit requires at least 100 mm (4 in) spacing at the front and 300 mm (12 in) at the
back.
2. Make sure the mounting location meets the environmental requirements of the Base Unit
(temperature, humidity, ventilation, and so on) as described in Appendix A, “Specifications” on
page 185.
3. Before installing the Base Unit, be sure to read “Electronic Emission Notices” on page xvii.
If the Base Unit is to be:
Ÿ Rack mounted (the preferred mounting style), continue with “Rack Mounting the Base Unit” on
page 49.
Ÿ
Surface mounted, go to “Surface Mounting the Base Unit” on page 51.
