Removing the power frame mounting brackets

The mounting brackets are used to fix the power frame and to protect the frame during transportation. To
ensure smooth installation, remove the mounting brackets from the power frame with a Phillips
screwdriver before you install the switch in the rack. A switch cannot be installed in a rack if the mounting
brackets are not removed.
