When you mount the switch into a ...
Page 32
The switch can be installed either as a free-standing unit, or installed in an eia cabinet, using an optional slide-rail rack mount kit. When mounting into a slide-rail rack, you can mount the chassis to slide from either the port side or the nonport side. Electrical considerations to install and op...
