Caution: When you ask your sales agent to maintain the switch, you must ensure that the dismantlement-preventive seal on a mounting screw of the H3C switch chassis is intact. If you want to open the chassis, you should contact the agent for permission. Otherwise, you will bear any consequence resulted from your actions without permission.
3. 1 Rack-Mounting the Switch
3. 1. 1 Cabinet Mounting
You can install a switch into a 19-inch standard cabinet in one of the following four ways: Use front mounting ears Use front mounting ears and a tray Use front mounting ears and rear mounting ears Use front mounting ears and guide rails The installation methods of a switch depend on the depth and width of the switch. Table 3-1 Installation methods for a switch with a width of 440 mm (17. 3 in) Method Depth 300 mm (11. 8 in) 420 mm (16. 5 in) Use front mounting ears -- Use front and rear mounting ears -- Use front mounting ears and a tray Use front mounting ears and guide rails

Note: When the depth of a switch is greater than 300 mm (11. 8 in), the front mounting ears only secure the switch rather than bear its weight. Guide rails purchased from H3C apply only to standard cabinets 1, 000 mm (39. 4 in) deep. Use other supports to substitute for guide rails in the case of other cabinet depths.

Note: Guide rails are optional parts. Use front mounting ears to install a switch
Follow these steps to mount a switch into a 19-inch standard cabinet: 1) 2) Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap to check the grounding and stability of the cabinet. Take out the screws which are packed together with the front mounting ears, and fix one end of mounting ears to the switch, as shown in Figure 3-4.

IV. Use front mounting ears and a tray
Follow these steps to install a switch into a 19-inch standard cabinet: 1) 2) 3) 4) Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap to check the grounding and stability of the cabinet. Take out the screws which are packed together with the front mounting ears, and fix one end of mounting ears to the switch, as shown in Figure 3-4. Place the switch on the tray horizontally, slide the tray into the cabinet, and fix the other end of mounting ears to the front brackets with crews and captive nuts, as shown in Figure 3-5.
V. Use front and rear mounting ears
Follow these steps to install a switch into a 19-inch standard cabinet: 1) 2) 3) Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap to check the grounding and stability of the cabinet. Take out the screws which are packed together with the front mounting ears, and fix one end of mounting ears to the switch, as shown in Figure 3-4. Take out the load-bearing screws (packed together with the rear mounting ears) and place them in a proper position on the sides of the switch, as shown in Figure 3-6.

Appendix A Lightning Protection of the Switch
Caution: Make sure that the arrester is well grounded before using the lightning arrester for power. After inserting AC power cord plug of switch into the socket of lightning arrester, if the green LED is on and the red LED does not alarm, it means that the lightning arrester of power is running and the function of lightning protection has taken effect. You should correctly locate the problem, whether it is caused because the ground wire of the arrester is not well grounded or because the live and zero wires are connected in reverse direction.
