Rails
The following figure shows a slide rail in the default configuration for a 300mm-600mm equipment
rack. This configuration comes with the short rear bracket installed. The slide rail actually consists
of two separate rails that slide into each other:
• Rack rail—This rail is the main component that connects to the equipment rack.
• Chassis rail—This rail is embedded in the rack rail. Later, the installation instructions explain
how to detach these two rails and install the chassis rail onto your switch.
