Mounting the Switch

This section provides instructions on how to mount the switch in different ways.

The following topics are covered in this section:

Desktop Mount

This section provides instructions for mounting the switch on the desktop or any flat surface.

Figure 1. Attaching Rubber Feet

1 Rubber feet 2 Front panel
Note: Make sure that the device is not stacked and avoid placing anything on the top of the device.
  1. Peel the four rubber feet from the master sheet provided in the kit.
  2. Attach the adhesive rubber feet to the four corners on the bottom of the switch.
    The rubber feet prevents the switch from sliding off the table surface.
  3. Place the switch on the desktop or any flat surface with a connecting power supply.

Magnetic Mount (Optional)

This section provides instructions for mounting the switch using a arubber magnet.

Note:Magnetic mounting is applicable to mount only on the metal surfaces.
Note:
  • Horizontal mount height is limited to 1.6m.
  • Vertical mount height is limited to 1.6m.
  • Ceiling mount is not supported.
  • High vertical wall mount is not supported.
  • Do not pull on the wires/cables connected to the product, as this may cause the product to fall and potentially result in injury.

  1. Attach the 3-in-1 bracket to the switch and secure it with the screws provided in the magnetic mount kit.
  2. Attach the rubber magnet to the 3-in-1 bracket. The rubber magnet should hold the product firmly.
    The size of the rubber magnet is 250mm x 200mm.
  3. Place the device on a flat surface.

L-Bracket Wall Mount (Optional)

This section provides instructions for wall mounting the switch using an L-Bracket.

  1. Position the L-Bracket aligning with the chassis holes on each side of the switch and secure it with screws.
  2. Determine the mounting position to attach the switch to the wall.
  3. Drill four holes (two on each side) 7x25mm deep on the wall.
  4. Insert M4 screw anchor to the four holes drilled on the wall.
  5. Place the chassis, attached with L-Bracket, on the wall aligning with the mounting holes and secure the device with screws.
  6. Tighten the screws to secure the device firmly to the wall.

L-Bracket Under Table Mount (Optional)

This section provides instructions for mounting the switch under the table/desk using an L-Bracket.

2 Screw anchor M4 4 Screw M4x25mm
Note: Ensure that the flat wooden surface has a minimum thickness of 25mm for under table mounting.
  1. Position the L-Bracket aligning with the chassis holes on each side of the switch and secure it with screws.
  2. Determine the mounting position to attach the switch under the table.
  3. Place the chassis, attached with L-Bracket, under the table and secure the device with screws.
  4. Tighten the screws to secure the device firmly under the table.

DIN Rail Mount (Optional)

This section provides instructions for mounting the switch usingaDIN rail.

3 DIN rail hook    
  1. Position the DIN mount bracket on the chassis aligning with the screw anchor and secure it with the screws.
  2. Place the DIN rail on the DIN mount bracket by aligning it with the DIN rail holder.
  3. Attach the DIN rail to the mounting bracket with the help of DIN rail hook as shown in the below image.

    1 DIN mount bracket 3 DIN rail holder
    2 DIN rail hook 4 DIN rail
  4. Press the DIN rail holder firmly and rotate the chassis to secure the device.

Two-post Rack Mount (Optional)

This section provides instructions for rack mounting the switch.

To mount the switch in a rack, you need to assemble the mounting brackets to the chassis, and then attach the brackets to the rack posts.

Attaching Mounting Brackets to the Chassis

This section describes the steps to attach mounting brackets to the switch chassis.

To mount the switch in a two-post rack, you need to assemble the mounting brackets to the chassis, and then attach the brackets to the rack posts.
Figure 6. Attaching the Mounting Brackets

1 L-bracket 3 Chassis
2 Flat head screw M4x6mm 4 L-bracket
Note: Ensure that there is about 1U rack spacing between the two devices on the rack.
  1. Align the rack mounting brackets with the chassis of the switch.
  2. Secure the mounting brackets firmly using the screws provided in the rack mounting kit.

Inserting the Switch into the Rack

This section describes the steps to insert the switch into a two-post rack.
Figure 7. Inserting the Switch into the Rack

1 Screw for cage nut 3 Chassis
2 L-bracket 4 L-bracket
Note: Ensure that there is 1RU clearance above the rack mount bracket.
  1. Place the switch into the rack by aligning the mounting bracket with the chassis.
  2. Secure the switch into the rack using the thread screws provided in the rack mount kit.
  3. Position the rack against the rack posts and mount the rack to the equipment rack.
  4. Secure the equipment rack using the screws.
