To mount a model 5200/5600 switch in a rack without the use of rails, fasten the
brackets to the switch as shown in Figure 4-2 . Choose the bracket screw holes to
produce the setback you want. Place the switch in the rack and fasten the bracket
flanges to the rack with two screws on each side.
Figure 4-2. Mounting the Model 5200/5600 Switch in a Rack without Rails
WARNING!! If the switch is mounted in a closed or multi-rack assembly, the
operating temperature of the rack environment may be greater
than the ambient temperature. Be sure to install the chassis in an
environment that is compatible with the maximum rated ambient
temperature. Refer to
“Environmental” on page A-5 for technical
specifications.
Do not restrict chassis air flow. Allow 16 cm (6.5 in) minimum
clearance at the front and rear of the switch (surface mount) or
rack for service access and ventilation.
Multiple rack-mounted units connected to the AC supply circuit
may overload that circuit or overload the AC supply wiring.
Consider the power source capacity and the total power usage of
all switches on the circuit. Refer to
“Electrical” on page A-5 .
Reliable grounding in the rack must be maintained from the switch
chassis to the AC power source.
