Four-Post Rack Mount
The switch is mounted onto a four-post rack by assembling two rails onto the rear posts, sliding the
switch onto the rails, then securing the switch to the front posts.
The installation kit provides the following four-post mounting parts:
•
2 six-hole mounting brackets
•
2 rail-rods
•
2 rail-slides
The rail-rods and rail-slides assemble into two identical slide-rails.
Each chassis side has attachment pins that align with bracket holes. Pin orientation is symmetric and
equidistant, supporting bracket placements where the flange is flush with the front switch panel, flush
with the rear panel, or not flush with either panel. Each bracket hole includes a key-opening for placing
the bracket flush with the chassis and then locking it into place.
Important: Attachment pins must engage at least five of the six bracket holes.
Goupilles de fixation doivent être lock au moins cinq des trous du six support.
The following figure displays proper bracket mount configuration examples for four-post mounting.
