Mounting Dimensions (unit = mm)

DIN-Rail Mounting

The aluminum DIN-Rail attachment plate should already be fixed to the back
panel of the Ethernet Switch when you take it out of the box. If you need to
reattach the DIN-Rail attachment plate, make sure the stiff metal spring is
situated towards the top, as shown in the figures below.

STEP 1:

Insert the top of the DIN-Rail into the
slot just below the stiff metal spring.

STEP 2:

The DIN-Rail attachment unit will
snap into place as shown below.

To remove the Ethernet Switch from the DIN-Rail, simply reverse Steps 1 and
2 above.

Wall Mounting (optional)

For some applications, you will find it convenient to mount the device on the
wall, as illustrated below.

STEP 1:
Remove the aluminum
DIN-Rail attachment plate from
the switch’s rear panel, and then
attach the wall mount plates, as
shown in the diagram below.

STEP 2:
Mounting the device on the wall requires 4 screws. Use the
switch, with wall mount plates attached, as a guide to mark
the correct locations of the 4 screws. The heads of the
screws should be less than 6.0 mm in diameter, and the
shafts should be less than 3.5 mm in diameter, as shown in
the figure at the right.

6.0 mm

3.5 mm

NOTE

Before tightening screws into the wall, make sure the screw head and
shank size are suitable by inserting the screw into one of the keyhole­shaped apertures of the Wall Mounting Plates.

Do not screw the screws in all the way—leave about 2 mm to allow room for
sliding the wall mount panel between the wall and the screws.

STEP 3:
Once the screws are fixed in the
wall, insert the four screw heads
through the large parts of the
keyhole-shaped apertures, and then
slide the Ethernet switch
downwards, as indicated. Tighten
the four screws for added stability.
