Mount the Switch
To mount the switch in a 4-post 19 inch rack:
1. Attach the ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and to a site ESD point.
NOTE:
If you are mounting multiple units in the rack, mount the heaviest device at the bottom and mount the
others from bottom to top in order of decreasing weight. The QFX5210-64C weighs approximately 31.09 lb
(14.1 kg) with power supplies and fans installed. Installing these devices in a rack or cabinet requires two people
to lift the switch and secure it to the rack.
2. Place the rack in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearance for airflow and maintenance, and secure it to the
building structure.
3. Determine whether the end with field replaceable units (FRUs) or the ports are to be placed at the front of the rack.
4. Align the holes in the mounting rail with the holes on the side of the chassis.
5. Attach the mounting rail to the device using six mounting screws. See
