Items required
You will require the following items to install the 3534 Model F08 in an EIA rack:

v
Rack space: 1 rack unit high, 48.26 cm (19 in.) wide, and 60.96 cm (24 in.) deep
v
Rack mount kit; see Table 3 for a list of the parts that are included in the kit

Attention:

Installation instructions
This section describes the basic procedure of installing the 3534 Model F08 in an
EIA rack, and then provides detailed steps.
Note: To ensure that the switch is adequately cooled, install it with the port side
(the side with the SFP) facing the aisle where exhaust air is released
(usually referred to as the service aisle). This prevents the fans from pulling
in heated exhaust air.
Basic procedure
The basic rack-mount installation procedure consists of the following four steps:
1. Mount the moving slide and the lock mounting ears to the switch.
2. Mount the fixed portion of the slide in the rack.
3. Insert the switch and move a portion of the slide into the fixed portion on the
rack.
4. Lock the switch in the rack using the mounting ears installed in step 1.
Detailed steps
Note: These steps use parts that are included in the 3534 Model F08 rack mount
kit. These parts are listed in Table 7. The installation procedure
cross-references the items in this table. Be sure that you use the referenced
parts when you perform each step.
To complete the rack-mount installation procedure, follow these detailed steps:
1. Unpack the 3534 Model F08. Verify that all ordered items and parts are present.
See Table 3 for a list of parts and the quantities that are supplied in each rack
