Installing the Switch in a 4-Post Rack

Fan-tray end of the chassis

a. Holding the switch with both hands, position the two rear rack-mount brackets on the switch between the rack or

cabinet posts that do not have slider rails attached to them.

b. Align the two rear rack-mount guides on either side of the switch with the slider rails installed in the rack. Slide the

rack-mount guides onto the slider rails, and then gently slide the switch all the way into the rack until the front

rack-mount brackets come in contact with two rack or cabinet posts.

Note

If you attached a grounding cable to the chassis, you will need to bend one of the rack-mount posts slightly

to allow the grounding lug to go behind the post.

c. Holding the chassis level, insert two screws (12-24 or 10-32, depending on the rack type) into each of the two front

rack-mount brackets (using a total of four screws), and into the cage nuts or threaded holes in the vertical rack-mounting

posts.

d. Tighten the 10-32 screws to 20 in-lb (2.26 N·m), or tighten the 12-24 screws to 30 in-lb (3.39 N·m).

Step 6

If you have attached a grounding wire to the chassis grounding pad, connect the other end of the wire to the facility

ground.
