Time required
Approximately 30 minutes.
Items required
The following items are required to install the 3534 Model F08 in an EIA rack:
v
Straight slot screwdriver
v
Rack space: 1 rack unit high, 48.26 cm (19 in.) wide, and 60.96 cm (24 in.) deep
v
Rack mount kit; see Table 6 for a list of the parts that are included in the kit
v
Power cable, provided with the switch

Attention:
Use the exact screws specified in the procedure for use with the
switch chassis. Using screws longer than 3/16 in. can damage the switch. The
different types of screws are listed in Table 6.
Note: Firmly tighten all the screws that are used in this procedure.
Installation instructions
This section describes the basic procedure of installing the 3534 Model F08 in an
EIA rack, and then provides detailed steps.
Note: To ensure that the switch is adequately cooled, IBM recommends that you
install it with the port side (the side with the SFP) facing the aisle where
exhaust air is released (usually referred to as the service aisle). This
prevents the fans from pulling in heated exhaust air.
Basic procedure
The basic rack-mount installation procedure consists of the following four steps:
1. Mount the moving slide and the lock mounting ears to the switch.
2. Mount the fixed portion of the slide in the rack.
3. Insert the switch and move a portion of the slide into the fixed portion on the
rack.
4. Lock the switch in the rack using the mounting ears installed in step 1.
Detailed steps
To complete the rack-mount installation procedure, follow these detailed steps:
1. Unpack the 3534 Model F08 and verify that all ordered items and parts are
present. See Table 6 for a list of parts and the quantities supplied in each rack
mount kit.
