Rack-mounting procedures at a glance
Figure 5 Rack-mounting procedure
Determine the installation
position (near the power
module side or port side )
for the mounting brackets
NOTE:
If a rack shelf is available, you can put the switch on the rack shelf and slide the switch to a position
so that the mounting brackets make close contact with the front rack posts. Then use screws to
secure the mounting brackets to the rack.
Follow these guidelines when you install the switch in a 19-inch rack:
•
The distance between the front and rear posts of the rack must meet the requirements
described in
•
To secure the switch to the rack, you must install not only mounting brackets, but also chassis
rails and slide rails.
