Catalyst 2960-S Switch Getting Started Guide
18
This section covers basic 19-inch rack-mounting and switch port connections. As
an example, all the illustrations show the Catalyst 2960S-48FPD-L switch. You
can install and connect the other Catalyst 2960-S switches as shown in these
illustrations. For alternate mounting procedures, such as installing the switch in a
24-inch rack or on a wall, and for additional cabling information, see the hardware
installation guide on Cisco.com.
You need to supply a number-2 Phillips screwdriver to rack-mount the switch.
Before installing the switch, verify that these guidelines are met:
Clearance to the front panels is sufficient so that the LEDs can be easily read.
•
Access to the switch rear panel to connect the optional Cisco Redundant
•
Power Supply (RPS) 2300 or to stack the switches. If you do not have access
to the rear panel, you should cable the switches before you rack-mount them.
AC power cord reaches from the AC power outlet to the connector on the
•
switch rear panel.
•
Cabling is away from sources of electrical noise, such as radios, power lines,
and fluorescent lighting fixtures. Make sure the cabling is safely away from
other devices that might damage the cables.
Airflow around the switch and through the vents is unrestricted.
•
Temperature around the unit does not exceed 113°F (45°C). If the switch is
•
installed in a closed or multirack assembly, the temperature around it might
be greater than normal room temperature.
Humidity around the switch does not exceed 85 percent.
•
Altitude at the installation site is not greater than 10,000 feet.
