Note
If you are installing the switch in an equipment cabinet, in place of the
12-24 screws supplied with the switch, use the clips and screws that came with
the cabinet. Plan which four holes that you will be using in the cabinet and
install all four clips and partially install the two bottom screws, as described
in step 2 on the previous page, before proceeding to step 3. The number of
holes depends on the switch and the rack kit being used. To reduce the switch
weight and ease while installation, you can remove the power supplies during
the racking process.
WARNING For safe operation, please read the “Installation Precautions” on page
2-6 and page 2-7 before mounting the switch.
1. Determine position of switch in rack and install a cage
nut in the lower
