WARNING: The 1 U versions of QFX5100 switches must be supported at all four
corners. Mounting the chassis using only the front brackets will damage the chassis
and can result in serious bodily injury.
CAUTION: All QFX5100 switches require two people for installation, one person to
lift the switch into place and another person to attach the switch to the rack. If you
are installing the QFX5100 switch above 60 in. (152.4 cm) from the floor, you can
remove the power supplies and fan modules to minimize the weight before attempting
to install the switch.
