Installing the Switch in the Rack

Minimum and Maximum Rack Depth for these switches
Make sure that the Installation kit you have is compatible with your rack.
To use the IS50XX series switch in a rack deeper than 50cm, order the switch with the standard
depth, or order the MIS000083 installation kit. The both of these solutions will allow you to install
the switch in a 19" rack whose vertical supports are between 50cm and 80cm apart.
