4.  Mount the hub

The HP Hub-16M can be mounted in two ways:

1.

in a rack or cabinet

2.

on a table

The hardware for mounting the hub is included in the accessory kit 
(5064-2053) packed with the hub.  

Before mounting the hub, unplug it.  

See Appendix G, “Safety and Regulatory Standards,” for general mounting 
precautions.

Rack or Cabinet Mounting

W a r n i n g

The rack or cabinet should be adequately secured to prevent it from 
becoming unstable and/or falling over.

  Please see Appendix G, “Safety 

and Regulatory Standards,” for precautions and warnings associated with rack 
mounting.

1.

Using a Phillips T-10 screwdriver, attach the mounting brackets to the hub 
with #10-32 x 7/16" silver  screws (included in the accessory kit).

2.

Position the hub in the rack or cabinet and slide it up or down until the 
rack holes line up with the bracket holes.

3.

Then attach the hub to the rack with the #10-32 x 5/8" black screws and 
black nylon washers included in the accessory kit with a Phillips cross-
head screwdriver. (Some cabinets require number 12-24 screws instead. 
Make sure you have screws that fit your cabinet or rack before mounting 
the hub.)
