42 Edge Switch 2/24 Installation Guide
Mounting the Adjustable Brackets in the Rack
Use these steps to install the adjustable brackets on the rack. You will need a #2
Phillips screwdriver and eight 10x32 panhead screws to complete this procedure.
Note: If you are installing the Edge Switch 2/24 in an HP 9000, 10000 or 11000
series rack, you will need eight square alignment washers to complete this procedure.
1. Determine the position of the switch in the rack. Each Edge Switch 2/24 is
1.75 inches or 1U high.
2. Attach four bar nuts (three-hole bar nuts) to the cabinet frame using eight (8)
Phillips panhead screws (10-32 x 1/2) with split lock and flat washers.
Note: Do not install a screw in the center hole of each bar nut.
a. If you are installing the Edge Switch 2/24 in an HP 9000, 10000, or 11000
series rack, place a square alignment washer on each panhead screw
before inserting in the square cabinet frame holes.
b. Mount the bar nut on the inside of the cabinet frame. Orient the holes in
the bar nut so that they are aligned closest to the inside edge of the cabinet
frame.
c. Secure, but do not completely tighten, all screws.
3. Measure cabinet depth from inside edge to inside edge of the cabinet frame.
4. Assemble two sets of front and rear brackets so that the combined brackets are
equal to the depth of the cabinet.
5. Attach a two-hole bar nut using four (4) Phillips flathead screws (8-32 x 7/16)
to hold each assembled bracket together. Do not completely tighten but
tighten enough to hold the brackets together.
6. Install the assembled brackets in the cabinet by sliding the mounting brackets
between the bar nut and cabinet frame.
7. Tighten the three-hole bar nut screws on the mounting brackets to where the
rails are stable, but can be easily adjusted.
8. Securely tighten the two-hole bar nut screws holding the front and rear
brackets together.
