Installation
Rack or Cabinet Mounting
Warning The rack or cabinet should be adequately secured to prevent it from
becoming unstable and/or falling over.
Install the Switch 800T only on a tabletop or an equipment rack or
cabinet designed for this product. The Switch 800T weighs 9.5 lbs (4.3
kilos) with four transceivers installed. Devices installed in a rack or
cabinet should be as low as possible, with the heaviest device at the
bottom and progressively lighter devices installed above.
1. If you will be using the optional HP J2962A HP AdvanceStack Redundant
Power Supply (RPS) with the Switch 800T, refer to the Installation and
Reference Guide shipped with the RPS for instructions on how to install
it in a position from which it can be used with the Switch 800T.
2. As shown below, partially install one of the 5/8-inch number 12-24 screws
in each rack upright. Install the screw in the upper hole of a close pair.
(Some cabinets require number 10-32 screws instead, which are not
included in the accessory kit.)
Caution Make sure you have screws that fit your cabinet or rack before mounting the
switch.
