Removing an Air Intake Grille
Step 4
Decide where the BPX switch is to be located. See Figure 7-2 through Figure 7-5 for typical mounting
dimensions. The top of the spacer bracket should be temporarily installed in the rack 22.75" (57.8 cm)
below the location selected for the top of the BPX switch chassis.
Step 5
Install the temporary support brackets and spacer bar (shipped with the unit). Use two mounting screws
to attach each temporary support bracket and two screws to attach the temporary spacer bar to the rack
(see Figure 7-7 and Figure 7-8).
Note
It is recommended that all BPX switches use a set of vertical support rails to provide
additional support for the rear of the chassis. In the Cisco cabinet these are located at a 19.86
inch setback from the front in factory installations.
