Mounting the Switch in a Rack

The switch ships with two (2) multi-position mounting ears and four (4)

mounting screws.

Figure 2-1 shows the orientation of the mounting ears for attaching the

ears to the switch for a rack mount application. Mount the switch with the

front panel facing forward. Do the following:

1.

Mount one of the ears to the switch using two (2) of the supplied

screws. Repeat this step for the other side of the switch.

2.

Slide the switch into the rack and align the holes in the rack mounting

ears with the holes in the rack rails.

3.

Insert and tighten appropriate rack-mounting screws (not provided).

ing ears to the switch. Once the ears are attached to
the switch, you will need to provide appropriate
