4.  Installing the SwitchAir 

device into the rack

Insert the SwitchAir device into 

the open rack space at the 

same 2U height as the switch.  
As the SwitchAir device is 

inserted into the space, the 

wiper makes contact with the 

rear corner of the switch. 
The wiper tab acts as a guide to 

deflect the wiper past the 

switch’s corner and along it’s 

side. 
Once the SwitchAir device is 

fully seated, install the 

mounting screws to fasten the 

unit to the front rack uprights.
