Attaching Mounting Brackets to an EX-series Switch

If you are installing a switch in a rack or cabinet, you must attach mounting brackets
to the switch.
An EX-series switch is shipped with one pair of mounting brackets. The holes in the
mounting brackets are spaced at 1 U (1.75 in. or 4.445 cm), so the switch can be
mounted in any rack that provides holes spaced at that distance.
The outer edges of the mounting brackets extend the width of an EX-series switch
chassis to 19 in. (48.2 cm), and the front of the chassis extends approximately 0.5 in.
(1.27 cm) beyond the mounting brackets. The spacing of rails and adjacent racks
must also allow for the clearances around the switch and rack (see "Clearance
Requirements for Airflow and Hardware Maintenance" on page 52).
Ensure you have a Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2 available to install mounting
brackets on an EX-series switch chassis.
To attach each mounting bracket to an EX-series switch (see Figure 29 on page 65):
