To rack-mount a Summit switch:
1 Place the switch upright on a stable work surface.
2 Place a mounting bracket over the mounting holes on one side of the unit.
3 Insert the screws and fully tighten with a suitable screwdriver, as shown in Figure 172.

4 Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the other side of the switch.
5 Slide the switch into the rack (Figure 173).
● Take care to load the rack so that it is not top-heavy. Start installing equipment at the bottom of
the rack and work up.
● Do not cover vents that would restrict airflow. Leave half a rack space between the units for
adequate ventilation.
