Installing the L Brackets and Cable Guides on the Catalyst 6504-E Switch
Note The Catalyst 6504-E switch chassis is normally shipped with the L brackets installed. If the chassis does
not have the L brackets installed, follow the steps in this section to install the L brackets on your
Catalyst 6504-E switch chassis. L brackets are normally shipped attached to the front of the chassis. You
can remove the L brackets from the front of the chassis and reattach them to the rear of the chassis.
The L brackets attach to the Catalyst 6504-E switch chassis using six M4 Phillips countersunk-head
screws (three M4 screws on each side). You attach the optional cable guides by sandwiching them
between the L brackets and switch chassis.
To install the L brackets on the front of the Catalyst 6504-E switch chassis, perform these steps:
Step 1 Position one of the brackets against the chassis side, and align the screw holes. (See Figure 3-4.)
Step 2 Secure the bracket to the chassis with three M4 screws.
Step 3 Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for the other bracket.
