Extreme Networks BlackDiamond 10K-Series Switch Installation Guide 27

Space Requirements for the Rack

Provide enough space in front of and behind the switch so that you can service it easily. Allow a

minimum of 48 inches (122 cm) in front of the rack and 24 inches (61 cm) behind the rack. When using a

relay rack, provide a minimum of 24 inches (61 cm) of space behind the mounted equipment. Extra

room on each side is optional.

NOTE

Install your equipment rack near an easily accessible power outlet. When you need to disconnect the

power cable from your switch, remove it first from the power source and then from the switch.

Securing the Rack

The rack should be attached to the wiring closet floor with 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) lag screws or equivalent

hardware. The floor under the rack should be level within 3/16 inch (5 mm). Use a floor-leveling

cement compound if necessary or bolt the racks to the floor as shown in Figure 5.

Figure 5: Properly secured rack

Brace open distribution racks if the channel thickness is less than 1/4 inch (6.4 mm).
