Mount an EX4100 and EX4100-F Switch in a Recessed Position in a Rack
or Cabinet
You can mount an EX4100 and EX4100-F switch in a rack or cabinet such that the switch is recessed
inside the rack from the front of the rack by 2 inches. You can use the 2-in.-recessed front-mounting
brackets provided in the separately orderable four-post rack-mounting kit to mount the switch in a
recessed position.
Reasons that you might want to mount the switch in a recessed position include:
• You are mounting the switch in a cabinet, and the cabinet doors do not close completely unless the
switch is recessed.
• The switch you are mounting has transceivers installed in the uplink ports, and the transceivers in the
uplink ports protrude from the front of the switch.
Before you mount an EX4100 and EX4100-F switch in a recessed position inside a 19-in. four-post rack:
• Verify that the site meets the requirements described in
Requirements" on page
• Place the rack in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearance for airflow and maintenance,
and secure it to the building structure.
