You can install the EX2300 switch on a desk or table, on a wall, or in a two-post or four-post rack. The
accessory kit that ships in the box has the brackets you need to install the EX2300 switch in a two-post
rack. We'll walk you through how to do that.
NOTE: If you want to mount the switch on the wall or in a four-post rack, you'll need to order a
wall mount or rack mount kit. The four-post rack mount kit also has brackets for mounting the
EX2300 switch in a recessed position in the rack.
