Figure 3-3. Mount the 24TP+1Fiber Module Switch in an EIA
Standard 19-inch Rack
Note: For proper ventilation, allow about at least 4 inches (10 cm) of
clearance on the front and 3.4 inches ( 8 cm ) on the back of the
Switch. This is especially important for enclosed rack installation.
3.3 Connecting to the Switch
The Console port is a female DB-9 connector that enables a
connection to a PC or terminal for monitoring and configuring the
SMC-EZ1026DT V.2 Switch. Use the supplied RS-232 cable with a
male DB-9 connector to connect a terminal or PC to the Console
port.
The Console configuration (out of band) allow you to set your Switch
to enable a user at a remote console terminal to communicate with
the SMC-EZ1026DT V.2 Switch as if the console terminal were
directly connected to it.
