Switch 4210 26-Port models are rack-mountable in a standard 19-inch rack.
Switch 4210 9- and 18-Port models are not as wide as the 19-inch model and are
intended for desktop or shelf installation.
Follow the steps below to mount a 26-Port model unit in a standard 19-inch rack:
1 Check that the rack is sturdy and properly grounded. Attach the rack-mount
brackets to the front or rear panel of the chassis with screws.
2 Place the switch on a shelf in the rack and slide it to a proper position along the
guide rails, reserving a suitable clearance between the device and the guide rails.
3 Fix the brackets to the rack posts with screws, making sure that the device is
securely attached.
