Figure 2-2. Attaching the Brackets 2-13 2 2. Installing the Switch Mount the device in the rack, using rack-mounting screws (not provided). Figure 2-3. If installing a single switch only, turn to "Connecting to a Power Source" at the end of this chapter. If installing multiple switches, mount them in the rack, one below the other, in any order. Desktop or Shelf Mounting 1. Attach the four adhesive feet to the bottom of the first switch. Figure 2-4. Set the device on a flat surface near an AC power source, making sure there 2-14 Connecting to a Power Source are at least two inches of space on all sides for proper air flow. 4. 2 If installing a single switch only, go to "Connecting to a Power Source" at the end of this chapter. If installing multiple switches, attach four adhesive feet to each one. Place each device squarely on top of the one below, in any order. Installing an Optional SFP Transceiver into the Switch Figure 2-5. Inserting an SFP Transceiver into a Slot To install an SFP transceiver, do the following: 1. Consider network and cabling requirements to select an appropriate SFP transceiver type. Insert the transceiver with the optical connector facing outward and the slot connector facing down. Note that SFP transceivers are keyed so they can only be installed in one orientation. Slide the SFP transceiver into the slot until it clicks into place. 3. Note: SFP transceivers are hot-swappable. The switch does not need to be powered off before installing or removing a transceiver. However, always first disconnect the network cable before removing a transceiver.
