Installing the G7052 in a Lenovo iDataPlex Rack
This section describes how to install the G7052 in a Lenovo iDataPlex rack. The
iDataPlex mounting kit allows the switch to be mounted either horizontally or
vertically.
The kit must be purchased separately. It includes the following parts:
Attention:
The rack-mounting frame may not be able to support the weight of the
networking switch with only the front post mounting brackets (2-post application). If
the switch has an undesirable amount of sag, it is recommended to use a 4-post
mounting kit.
Attention:
For earthquake stability, mount the switch in a 4-post rack.
