Rack-mounting the switch by using front and rear mounting
brackets
Attaching the front mounting brackets and shoulder screws to the switch
The switch provides two installation positions for front mounting brackets. One is near the port side
and the other is near the power supply side. Choose the installation position for the front mounting
brackets as required. The screw (mounting bracket screws and shoulder screws) installation method
differs slightly for installing the front mounting brackets at the power supply side or port side.
To attach the front mounting brackets and shoulder screws to the switch:
1.
Align the holes in the wide flange of one front mounting bracket with the screw holes in a side
panel of the chassis. See
2.
Use M4 screws (supplied with the switch) to attach the mounting bracket to the chassis.
As a best practice, use a torque of 12 kgf-cm (1.18 Nm) to fasten the M4 screws.
3.
Repeat the preceding two steps to attach the other mounting bracket to the chassis.
4.
Unpack the shoulder screws and attach them to the chassis. As a best practice, use a torque of
12 kgf-cm (1.18 Nm) to fasten the shoulder screws.
If you install the front mounting brackets at the port side, two installation positions are available
for the shoulder screw (red marked in
).
If you install the front mounting brackets at the power supply side, one installation position is
available for the shoulder screw (red marked in
.).
