PoE-ready switches:

These power supplies may be rack mounted above or below the chassis for a 2RU configuration. The
following sections describe how to rack-mount a power supply shelf and connect the power supply to the
chassis with a cable.

Rack Mounting Power Supplies

Align the threaded holes in the provided rack-mount flanges with the two holes in the power supply
1
shelf. These holes are located on the left and right sides of the shelf.
Attach the flanges to the chassis using the provided Phillips-head screws. The screws slide through the
2
non-threaded holes from the inside of the power supply shelf and are then attached to the mounting brack-
ets using the threaded holes. Be sure to tighten each of the screws firmly using a Phillips screwdriver.
Carefully slide the power supply on to the power shelf and secure the power supply to the shelf using
3
the captive screws.

where the shelf is to be installed.
