Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco MDS 9200 Series
Installing the Switch in a Cabinet with Insufficient Front Clearance
The rack-mount kit provided with the switch contains the items listed in
Table 2-1
. If you do not find all
of the parts listed in
Table 2-1
, you may have an older version of the rack-mount kit, which only included
the front rack-mount brackets. If this is the case, you can either install the switch in the rack with just
the front rack-mount brackets, or contact your customer service representative for a current version of
the rack-mount kit.

Step 1
Install the front rack-mount brackets as follows:
a.
Position a front rack-mount bracket against the chassis and align the screw holes as shown in
Figure 2-7
. Then attach the front rack-mount bracket to the chassis with six of the M4 screws.
b.
Repeat with the other front rack-mount bracket on the other side of the switch.
