Examining the installation site
The HP FlexFabric 1 1900 switches must be used indoors. To ensure normal operation and long service life
of your switch, the installation site must meet the requirements in this section.
Weight support
Make sure the floor can support the total weight of the rack, chassis, cards, power supplies, and all other
components. Additionally, the floor loading plan must also consider system expansion, such as adding
more cards. For more information, see
