Mounting an EX3200 or EX4200 Switch on Two Posts in a Rack or Cabinet
You can mount an EX3200 or EX4200 switch on two posts of a 19-in. rack or cabinet by
using the mounting brackets provided with the switch. (The remainder of this topic uses
“rack” to mean “rack or cabinet.”)
You can mount the switch on four posts of a four-postrack by using the mounting brackets
provided with the separately orderable four-post rack-mount kit. See “Mounting an
EX3200 or EX4200 Switch on Four Posts in a Rack or Cabinet” on page 124.
NOTE: If you need to mount the switch in a recessed position on either a two-post rack
or a four-post rack, you can use the 2-in.-recessfront brackets providedin the separately
orderable four-post rack-mount kit.
Before mounting an EX3200 or EX4200 switch on two posts in a rack:
•
Verify that the site meets the requirements described in “Site Preparation Checklist
for EX3200 and EX4200 Switches” on page 87.
•
Place the rack in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearance for airflow and
maintenance, and secure it to the building structure.
•
Read “General Safety Guidelines and Warnings for EX Series Switches” on page 207,
with particular attention to “Chassis Lifting Guidelines for EX3200 and EX4200
Switches” on page 220.
•
Remove the switch from the shipping carton (see “Unpacking an EX3200 or EX4200
Switch” on page 118).
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
•
Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2
•
2 mounting brackets and 8 mounting screws (provided in the accessory box shipped
with the switch)
•
Screws to secure the chassis to the rack (not provided)
•
2-in.-recess front brackets if you will mount the switch in a recessed position (brackets
are from the separately orderable four-post rack-mount kit).
•
Dust covers for ports (for EX4200-24F switches only; optional)
