Guidelines
This section provides safety precautions and various installation guidelines to
prepare you to install the Switch 4005 chassis in a safe and efficient manner.
Safety Precautions
Read this section before you begin to install the Switch 4005 chassis.
WARNING:
The installation requires at least two people. Do not attempt to install
the chassis alone.
WARNING:
The chassis shipping box contents include two rack-mount brackets
called
flanges
, each of which has one stationary flange pin (see Figure 4). After the
flanges are attached to the chassis, use the flange pins only to help position the
chassis on the rack. Do not use these pins to support the full weight of the chassis.
Figure 4 Rack-Mount Flange Pin and Rack Slots
WARNING:
When the Switch 4005 chassis is fully loaded with modules, fans and
power supplies, the chassis weighs approximately 20.6 kg (45.5 lb). To reduce the
weight that you have to lift or support, you may consider installing your chassis
before you install additional modules or power supplies.
WARNING:
Safety regulations state that the selected table, rack or shelf must be
able to support at least 61.8 kg (136.5 lb), which is three times the weight of a
fully loaded chassis.
WARNING:
If you are installing the chassis in a rack, at least one person should
support the weight of the chassis until another person has securely installed it
according to the procedures in this chapter. If you release the weight of the chassis
before it is secured to the rack, the chassis may drop off the rack. Personal injury
or serious damage to the chassis may result.
