Rack-mounting the switch
Attaching slide rails or bottom support rails to the rack
IMPORTANT:
M6 screws and cage nuts are used to attach slide rails or bottom support rails to the rack. Prepare
M6 screws and cage nuts yourself. As a best practice, use a torque of 30 kgf-cm (2.94 Nm) to fasten
the M6 screws.
Before mounting the switch in the rack, you must attach slide rails or bottom support rails to the rack.
To attach slide rails or bottom support rails to the rack:
1.
Identify the installation position of the slide rails and bottom support rails on the rack based on
the switch installation position.
2.
Attach cage nuts (user-supplied) to the mounting holes in the rack posts.
3.
(Applicable to the 1U slide rails.) Align the screw holes in one slide rail with the cage nuts in a
rear rack post, and then use M6 screws (user-supplied) to attach the slide rail to the rack, as
shown in
4.
(Applicable to the bottom support rails.) Align the screw holes in the two ends of a bottom
support rail with the cage nuts in the front and rear rack posts, and then use M6 screws
(user-supplied) to attach the slide rail to the rack, as shown in
5.
Attach the other slide rail or bottom support rail to the other rear rack post.
Make sure the two slide rails or bottom support rails are at the same height.
