CrossFire 8730 Switch Installation Guide, DOC-7046 v. 1.2 Installation
Before starting the next step, be sure you have the proper hardware for mounting
the chassis with the exposed brackets to your cabinet or rack.
2. Position the switch, with the exposed mounting brackets, in the rack or cabinet
and slide it up or down until the bracket holes line up with the rack holes. Attach
the chassis brackets to the rack using the Allen screws you removed above and
the nuts supplied with the switch. Close the cap again to conceal the screws.
➽
Note: Only fixed brackets are supplied with these units. If you want to install a
sliding pullout mount, you will need to provide the extra mounting hardware.
Figure 5. Mounting the Switch in a Rack or Cabinet
Table-Mounting
The switch operates at a low noise level, which makes it suitable for a large enough
flat surface, such as a table or a similar area.
Four self-adhesive pads are supplied with the switch. The pads must be mounted in
the four recesses on the bottom of the switch. When the pads are mounted, simply
place the switch on a clear, level location. Leave enough room around the switch
for ventilation and access to the controls and cable connectors.
➽
Caution: Due to weight constraints, place no more than three units (or the
equivalent weight of other equipment) directly on top of another chassis. More than
three units on top of another unit may cause damage to the lower unit. One unit
weighs about 9.5 kg (20.9 lbs).
