3.2 Rack Mounting the ProSwitch
®
- 2600M
1. Use the brackets and screws supplied in the rack mounting kit.
2. Use a cross-head screwdriver to attach the brackets to the side
of the intelligent Switch.
3. Position the 2600M on the rack by lining up the holes in the
brackets with the appropriate holes on the rack, and then use the supplied screws to
mount the hub onto the standard EIA 19-inch rack.
3.3 Powering the 2600M
The 2600M switch is equipped with a universal power supply that accepts AC input
voltages from 100 to 240VAC and 50 to 60 Hz.
To supply power to your switch:
1. Plug the connector of the power cord into the power port on the rear panel of your
switch.
2. Plug the other end of the power cord into an AC wall outlet.
Note: Network cable segments can be connected or disconnected from the switch while the
power is on, without interrupting the operation of the switch.
3.4 The Modules
Warning: Before installing a module into the 2600M, you must disconnect the switch from
the main power supply. The 2600M does not support the hot-swap function. The switch
and the modules can be damaged if you do not turn off the power to the switch.
Handling Modules
The module can be easily damaged by electrostatic discharge. To prevent damage, please
observe the following:
Do not remove modules from their packaging until you are ready for installation.
Do not touch any of the pins, connections or components on the modules.
Handle the modules on the edges and front panel.
Always wear an anti-static wristband connected to a suitable grounding point.
Always store or transport modules in appropriate anti-static packaging.
Module Installation
1. Ensure that the switch is disconnected from the main power supply and that you are
wearing an anti-static wristband connected to a suitable grounding point.
2. Place the switch on a flat surface.
3. Loosen the screws of the cover on the module slot. Do not remove any other screws
from the switch.
4. Keep the blank module cover and screws in a safe place. If you remove the module at
any time, you must replace the blank module cover to prevent dust and debris from
entering the switch and to aid the circulation of cooling air.
5. Follow the rails on both sides of the module slot to slide the module in slowly.
6. Push the module firmly to ensure connection with the module and the connector in the
switch.
7. Tighten the screws to firmly connect the module to the switch.
8. Power ON the switch.
