Installing the Switch

recommends that you get assistance when mounting the chassis in
an equipment rack.  E28
To install the switch in a 19-inch equipment rack, perform the following
procedure:
1. Place the switch on a level, secure surface.
2. If you have not chosen an orientation for the switch in the equipment
rack, review "Switch Orientations in the Equipment Rack" on page 52.
3. Attach two brackets to the sides of the switch in the selected position,
using eight of the M4x6mm screws included with the unit. The
illustration in Figure 21 shows the installation of the brackets so that
the front panel of the switch is even with the front of the equipment
rack.
