CHAPTER 2
Hardware Installation and
Connection
This chapter shows you how to install and connect the switch.
2.1 Freestanding Installation
1 Make sure the ES-4024A is clean and dry.
2 Set the ES-4024A on a smooth, level surface strong enough to support the weight of the
ES-4024A and the connected cables. Make sure there is a power outlet nearby.
3 Make sure there is enough clearance around the ES-4024A to allow air circulation and the
attachment of cables and the power cord.
4 Remove the adhesive backing from the rubber feet.
5 Attach the rubber feet to each corner on the bottom of the ES-4024A. These rubber feet
help protect the ES-4024A from shock or vibration and ensure space between devices
when stacking.
Figure 6 Attaching Rubber Feet
Note: Do NOT block the ventilation holes. Leave space between devices when
stacking.
For proper ventilation, allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of clearance at the front
and 3.4 inches (8 cm) at the back of the switch. This is especially important for
enclosed rack installations.
