Cabinet 
Note
The 12-24 screws supplied with the switch are the correct threading for 
standard EIA/TIA open 19-inch racks. If installing the switch in an equipment 
cabinet such as a server cabinet, use the clips and screws that came with the 
cabinet in place of the 12-24 screws that are supplied with the switch.
Rack Mounting the Switch
1. Use a #1 Phillips (cross-head) screwdriver and attach the mounting 
brackets to the switch with the included 8-mm M4 screws.
Figure 2-3. Attaching mounting brackets
WARNING For safe reliable installation, only use the screws provided in the 
accessory kit to attach the mounting brackets to the switch.
Note The mounting brackets have multiple mounting holes and can be rotated 
allowing for a wide variety of mounting options. These include mounting the 
switch so that its front face is flush with the face of the rack, or mounting it 
in a more balanced position.
