Chapter 3 Installing the Switch
Rack-Mounting
Attaching L Brackets to the Chassis
The rack-mount L brackets are included in the accessory kit. The L brackets can be installed either on
the front sides of the chassis or on the rear sides of the chassis.
To install the L brackets on the front sides of the chassis, follow these steps:
Step 1 Remove the two rack-mount brackets and eight M4 x 8 mm Phillips flat-head screws from the accessory
kit.
Note The L brackets are stamped with different part numbers to identify them as left and right. The
left-side L
bracket (as viewed from the front of the chassis) has the part number 700-20931-xx;
the right-side L
bracket (as viewed from the front of the chassis) has the part number
700-20932-xx.
Step 2 Position the left L bracket (p/n 700-20931-xx) against the left chassis side, and align the countersunk
screw holes. (See
Figure 3-1, top view.)
Step 3 Secure the L bracket to the chassis with four M4 x 8 mm Phillips flat-screws.
Step 4 Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for the right L bracket (p/n 700-20932-xx).
