4.2 GROUND CABLE
NOTE: For this AC-powered switch, although the third conductor of the AC power cord provides a ground path, Black Box
recommends grounding your switch with a dedicated ground wire.
The ground cable is not included. To properly ground the chassis, Black Box recommends a one- or two-hole lug, M4 hole size. The
ground lugs must be a UL-recognized, crimp-type lug.
CAUTION: Grounding conductors must be made of copper. Do not use aluminum conductors.
NOTE: Coat the one-hole lug with an anti-oxidant compound before crimping. Also, bring any unplated mating surfaces to a shiny
finish and coat with an anti-oxidant before mating. Plated mating surfaces must be clean and free from contamination.
Before you install the switch into the dual-tray:
1. Cut the ground cable (not included) to the desired length. The cable length must facilitate proper operation of the fault interrupt
circuits. Use the shortest cable route allowable.
2. Unscrew the two attached M4 screws and set aside.
3. Attach the ground lug and bracket to the switch using the M4 screws.
4. Using one of the two M4 threaded holes, attach the ground cable to the lug. Use the M4 screw with a captive internal tooth lock
washer. Torque the screw to ± 5–6 in-lbs.
5. Attach the other end of the ground cable to a suitable ground point such as the rack or cabinet. The rack installation ears are not
a suitable grounding point.

RACKMOUNT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Rack loading—Overloading or uneven loading of racks may result in shelf or rack failure, causing damage to the equipment and
possible personal injury. Stabilize racks in a permanent location before loading begins. Mount the components beginning at the
bottom of the rack, then work to the top. Do not exceed your rack’s load rating.
Power considerations—Connect only to the power source specified on the unit. When multiple electrical components are installed
in a rack, ensure that the total component power ratings do not exceed the circuit capabilities. Overloaded power sources and
extension cords present fire and shock hazards.
Elevated ambient temperature—If installed in a closed rack assembly, the operating temperature of the rack environment may
be greater than the room ambient temperature. Use care not to exceed the 113° F (45° C) maximum ambient temperature of the
switch.
Reduced air flow—Install the equipment in the rack so that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment is not
compromised.
Reliable grounding—Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to the supply connections
other than the direct connections to the branch circuit, for example: use of power strips.
Do not mount the equipment with the rear panel facing in the downward position.
4.4 HALF RU FRONT-RACK INSTALLATION
The dual-tray mounting rails ship with the dual tray, not with the switch. You must supply eight rack-mount screws for this
installation.
To install the half-RU switch:
Attach the rails to the dual tray.
Install the dual tray in the rack.
Install the switch in the dual tray.
NOTE: Black Box does not recommend installing the dual tray in a 2-post rack. However, it is possible. If you must install the dual
tray in a 2-post rack, contact Black Box Technical Support at 877-877-2269 or info@blackbox.com.
