Installation Procedures
Installing the Switch 2124
Note Steps 2, 3, and 4 below describe a convenient method of mounting the switch
in a rack by placing it on two screws that you first install in the rack. You may,
instead, just hold the switch with attached brackets up to the rack and move
it vertically until rack holes line up with the bracket notches, then insert and
tighten the four screws holding the brackets to the rack.
2. Partially install a screw (5/8-inch number 12-24) into the top hole of a pair
of holes that are 0.5 inches apart in each rack/cabinet upright as shown
in the illustration below. Ensure that the screws are at the same level in
each upright.
3. Place the switch in the rack and lower it so the notches in the bottom of
the bracket slide onto the screws, then tighten these screws.
