Rack-mounting the switch by using mounting brackets and
rack mounting rail kit
Attaching the mounting brackets and chassis rails to the chassis
1.
Place the wide flange of the mounting bracket against the chassis side panel. Align the
mounting bracket installation holes with the screw holes in the chassis. Use M4 screws
(provided) to attach the mounting bracket to the chassis.
{
To install the mounting brackets at the power module-side mounting position, see
Figure 9
.
{
To install the mounting brackets at the port-side mounting position, see
Figure 10
.
2.
Determine the chassis rail installation position:
{
If the mounting brackets are installed at the power module-side mounting position, install
the chassis rails at one of the three chassis rail installation positions at the power module
side.
{
If the mounting brackets are installed at the network port-side mounting position, install the
chassis rails at one of the three chassis rail installation positions at the port side.
3.
Place the chassis rail against the chassis side panel. Align the chassis rail installation holes with
the screw holes. Use M4 screws (provided) to attach the chassis rail to the chassis.
NOTE:
Attach the mounting brackets and chassis rails to both sides of the chassis in the same way.
