Mounting an EX4500 Switch on Two Posts in a Rack or Cabinet
114
You can mount an EX4500 switch:
On two posts in a 19-in. rack or cabinet by using the mounting brackets provided with
the switch.
On four posts in a 19-in. rack or cabinet by using the separately orderable four-post
rack-mount kit.
In a position recessed 2 in. from the front of a 19-in. rack or cabinet by using the
separately orderable four-post rack-mount kit. You can mount the switch in this
recessed position on four-post racks and cabinets.
The holes in the mounting brackets are placed at 1 U (1.75 in. or 4.45 cm) apart so that
the switch can be mounted in any rack or cabinet that provides holes spaced at that
distance.
See the Related Documentation for detailed descriptions of the various rack or cabinet
mounting options.
