CHAPTER 5: INSTALLING THE SWITCH
5.2.2 RAILS SYSTEM INSTALLATION
The rackmounting system is provided to easily configure your rack for installation of your EMS100G-32 switch.
You can install the rail system using the 1U tool-less method or one of three 1U tooled methods—two-post flush mount, two-post
center mount or four-post threaded.
1. With the rail flange ears facing outward, place one rail between the left and right vertical posts.
Align and seat the rear flange rail pegs in the rear vertical post flange. The illustration and its extractions show how the pegs
appear in both the square and non-threaded round holes.

2. Align and seat the front flange pegs in the holes on the front side of the vertical post.
3. Repeat this procedure for the second rail.
4. To remove each rail, pull on the latch release button on each flange ear and unseat each rail.
