Chapter 3 Installing the Switch
Caution:
When you ask your sales agent to maintain the switch, you must ensure that the
dismantlement-preventive seal on a mounting screw of the switch chassis is intact. If
you want to open the chassis, you should contact the agent for permission. Otherwise,
you will bear any consequence resulted from your actions without permission.
3.1 Rack-Mounting the Switch
You can install a switch into a 19-inch standard cabinet in one of the following three
ways:
z
Use front mounting ears and a tray
z
Use front mounting ears and rear mounting ears
z
Use front mounting ears and guide rails
Note:
z
The front mounting ears and rear mounting ears are delivered with the device, no
guide rails are delivered with the device.
z
The front mounting ears only secure the switch rather than bear its weight.
z
Guide rails purchased from H3C apply only to standard cabinets 1,000 mm (39.4 in)
deep. Use other supports to substitute for guide rails in the case of other cabinet
depths.
