For systems with a power switch, line voltages are present within the power supply even when the power switch is off and the power cord is connected. For systems without a power switch, line voltages are present within the power supply when the power cord is connected. Warning Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.

Warning Ultimate disposal of this product should be handled according to all national laws and regulations. Warning Class 1 laser product. Warning Avoid exposure to the laser beam. When determining where to place the switch, be sure to observe the guidelines listed below see "," for detailed specifications :. Note If the switch is installed in a closed or multirack assembly, the temperature around it might be greater than normal room temperature. A XL switch can be installed in a inch or inch standard rack, on a wall, or on a table or shelf.

This section contains procedures for installing a switch in each of these locations. Other switches in the series, including models two-rack-units high, can also be installed as shown here. Before you begin the installation, decide how to mount the switch by reviewing the illustrations in this section. If you decide to mount the switch in a rack or on a wall, use the mounting brackets supplied with the switch.

To install the switch in a inch or inch standard rack, follow the instructions described in these procedures:. If you plan to install the switch in a rack, you must first remove screws in the switch chassis so that mounting brackets can be attached to the chassis.

Figure shows how to remove the chassis screws in a fixed-port and a modular port switch. The bracket orientation and screws that you use depend on whether you are attaching the brackets for a inch or inch rack. Use two of the supplied screws to attach each bracket, according to rack size:. Figure , , Figure , and , show how to attach a bracket to one side of the switch. Follow the same steps to attach the second bracket to the opposite side of the switch.

After the brackets are attached to the switch, use the four supplied Phillips machine screws to securely attach the brackets to the rack, as shown in Figure After the switch is mounted in the rack, attach the power cord to the switch.

We recommend attaching the cable guides to prevent the cables from obscuring the front panel of the switch and the other devices installed in the rack. If the switch is in a inch or inch rack, you can attach the cable guide to the left or right bracket by using the supplied black screw, as shown in Figure The cable guides for the modular switches require two screws.

The bracket orientation and the screws you use depend on whether you are attaching the brackets for parallel or vertical wall-mounting. Use two of the supplied screws to attach each bracket, according to the following guidelines:. Figure and show how to attach the brackets to one side of the switch. For best support of the switch and cables, make sure the switch is attached securely to a wall stud or to a firmly attached plywood mounting backboard, as shown in Figure and Figure After the switch is mounted on the wall, attach the power cord to the switch.

Step 1 Locate the adhesive strip with the rubber feet in the mounting-kit envelope. Attach the four rubber feet to the recessed areas on the bottom of the unit. If the switch is attached to your network, you can use a Telnet connection to manage the switch from a remote location. The CiscoView application is a device-management application that you can use to click on a switch image to set configuration parameters and to view switch status and performance information.

See the documentation that came with your CiscoView application for information. See the documentation that came with your SNMP application for information. The examples in this section show ways in which you might deploy XL switches in your network. The links to the BaseTX servers and workstations can be full duplex. A repeater does not support full-duplex transmission, so the links to the BaseTX repeaters are always half duplex.

In this topology, the switch is in the middle of the network and can provide connectivity to a mixture of hubs, switches, and servers. Figure shows four XL switches in a star topology.
