2.2 Installing the Switch on a Flat Workbench
If a standard 19-inch rack is not available, place the switch on a clean, flat workbench. Attach the 4
footpads to corresponding position of the switch bottom to avoid potential sliding and vibration, and
ensure good ventilation and proper clearance around the switch for heat dissipation. See figure below:
