Installation Options

A IBM SAN32C-6 Switch can be installed using the following methods:

• In an open EIA rack
• In a perforated EIA cabinet

The rack-mount kit enables you to install the switch into racks of varying depths. You can use the rack-mount kit parts to position the switch with easy access to either the port connections end of the chassis or the end of the chassis with the fan and power supply modules. For instructions on how to install the rack-mount kit, see the Installing the Switch section.
