Attaching The Mounting Brackets; Rack Mounting Safety Considerations - Dell Networking S4810 Getting Started Manual

Attaching the Mounting Brackets

The S4810–ON is shipped with mounting brackets (rack ears) and the required screws for rack or cabinet
installation. The brackets are enclosed in a package with the chassis.
1. Take the brackets and screws out of their packaging.
2. Attach the brackets to the sides of the chassis at the power supply unit (PSU) end, using four screws
for each bracket.
Attach the bracket so that the "ear" faces to the PSU and the outside of the chassis.

Rack Mounting Safety Considerations

You may either place the switch on the rack shelf or mount the switch directly into a 19" wide, EIA-310-
E- compliant rack.
• Rack loading — Overloading or uneven loading of racks may result in shelf or rack failure, which may
damage the equipment and cause personal injury. Stabilize the racks in a permanent location before
loading begins. Mount the components beginning at the bottom of the rack, then work to the top. Do
not exceed your rack load rating.
• Power considerations — Connect only to the power source specified on the unit. When you install
multiple electrical components in a rack, ensure that the total component power ratings do not
exceed the circuit capabilities. Overloaded power sources and extension cords present fire and shock
hazards.
• Elevated ambient temperature — If you install the equipment in a closed rack assembly, the operating
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the room ambient temperature. Use care
not to exceed the 40°C maximum ambient temperature of the switch.
• Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so that you do not compromise the amount of
airflow required for safe operation of the equipment.
