Attaching the brackets to the switch

Attaching the switch to a wall

Note

To mount a Catalyst 2912 LRE XL or 2924 LRE XL switch on a
wall, you need to obtain two special wall-mount brackets (Cisco part
number wallmount-1ru=). To order these brackets, contact your
Cisco sales representative.

Attaching the Brackets to the Switch

The bracket orientation and the screws you use depend on whether you are
attaching the brackets for parallel or vertical wall-mounting. Use two of the
supplied screws to attach each bracket, according to the following guidelines:

For parallel wall-mounting, use the supplied Phillips truss-head screws to
attach the short side of the bracket to the switch.

For vertical wall-mounting, use the supplied Phillips flat-head screws to
attach the long side of the bracket to the switch.

Note

The Catalyst 2912 LRE XL and 2924 LRE XL switches cannot be mounted
vertically on a wall.

Figure 2-13

show how to attach the brackets to one side of the

the switch.
