Rack-mounting the switch by using front and rear mounting
brackets (S5560X-30C-PWR-EI and S5560X-54C-PWR-EI)
Attaching the front mounting brackets and shoulder screws to the switch
To rack-mount the S5560X-30C-PWR-EI and S5560X-54C-PWR-EI switches by using the front and
rear mounting brackets, you can install the front mounting brackets at the port-side or power
module-side mounting position. The following uses port-side mounting as an example. The
power-side mounting is similar.
To attach the front mounting brackets and shoulder screws to the switch:
1.
Align the round holes in the wide flange of one front mounting bracket with the screw holes in
the port-side mounting position on one side of the chassis. See
.
2.
Use M4 screws (supplied with the switch) to attach the mounting bracket to the chassis.
3.
Repeat the proceeding two steps to attach the other mounting bracket to the chassis.
4.
Unpack the shoulder screws. Attach the shoulder screw to one of the two installation positions
as red-marked in

1.
Determine the switch installation position in the rack.
2.
Install cage nuts in the rack posts. Make sure the corresponding cage nuts on the left and right
rear rack posts are at the same height.
3.
Orient the rear mounting brackets with the wide flange inside or outside the rack as required.
4.
Use M6 screws to attach the rear mounting brackets to the rear posts, as shown in
.
Do not fully tighten the M6 screws before mounting the switch in the rack.
