Installing the Switch
This section covers desk-mounting procedures. As examples, all the illustrations
show the Catalyst 2960CPD-8PT-L switch. For alternate mounting procedures,
such
as installing the switch in a rack, under the desk, on a wall, or for using a
mounting tray and magnet, see the Catalyst 3560-C and 2960-C Switch Hardware
Installation Guide on Cisco.com.
Equipment That You Need
• Number-2 Phillips screwdriver
• Drill with a #27 drill bit (0.144-inch [3.7 mm])
Before You Begin
Before installing the switch, these guidelines must be met:
• Clearance to front panels is such that the LEDs can be easily read.
• Power cord reaches from the power outlet to the connector on the switch.
• Cabling is away from sources of electrical noise, such as radios, power lines,
and fluorescent lighting fixtures.
• Temperature around the unit does not exceed 113°F (45°C). If the switch is
installed in a closed or multirack assembly, the temperature around it might
be greater than normal room temperature.
• Humidity around the switch does not exceed 95 percent.
• Altitude at the installation site is not greater than 10,000 feet.
