CAUTION: Rack Loading - Overloading or uneven loading of racks may result in shelf or rack failure, causing
damage to equipment and possible personal injury. Stabilize racks in a permanent location before loading
begins. Mount components beginning at the bottom of the rack, then work to the top. Do not exceed your rack
load rating.
To install the 1U switch mounting bracket:
1. Remove the first two screws on each side.
2. Line up the holes in the “long side” of the kit’s side brackets with the screw holes in the switch.
3. With a Phillips screwdriver, fasten the mounting brackets to the switch using two screws on
each side.
4. Attach four cage nuts or clip nuts to the rack mounting flange of the rack cabinet so that the nut
is positioned on the inside of the rack.
NOTE: Nuts are not included with the rack mount kit.
5. Mount the switch assembly to the rack cabinet by matching the holes in the “short side” of
each bracket to an appropriate set of matching holes on your rack cabinet. Next, insert the
combination hex head screws through the slots in the bracket and the holes in the mounting
rail, then into the cage nuts or clip nuts.
