Step 1. Attach the left and right rack mount rails (A) to the switch, and secure the chassis in the rails by
screwing 2 flat head Phillips screws (D) in the designated points on each side (a total of 4
screws). See
Figure 26. To tighten the screws, use a torque of 1.5±0.2 Nm.

Step 2. Install 8 cage nuts (C) in the desired 1U slots of the rack: 4 cage nuts in the non-extractable side
and 4 cage nuts in the extractable side. Note that while each rack U (unit) consists of three
holes, the cage nut should be installed vertically with its ears engaging the top and bottom holes
only. See
Figure 27.
