Requirements for Mounting an EX3300 Switch on a Desktop or Wall
You can install the switch on or under a desk or other level surface or on a wall. When
choosing a location, allow at least 6 in. (15.2 cm) of clearance between the front and
back of the chassis and adjacent equipment or walls.
Ensure that the wall onto which the switch is installed is stable and securely supported.
If you are mounting the switch in sheetrock (wall board with a gypsum plaster core) or
in wall board not backed by wall studs, use hollow wall anchors capable of supporting
the combined weight of two fully loaded chassis. Insert the screws into wall studs
wherever possible to provide added support for the chassis.
Use the wall-mount kit from Juniper Networks to mount the switch on a wall. The
wall-mount kit is not part of the standard package and must be ordered separately.
