Removing a Front-Mounted Switch from a Two-Post Rack
Removing a front-mounted Summit X480 switch from a rack requires two people to maneuver the
switch and disconnect the mounting hardware.
To remove a front-mounted switch:
1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect the metal end to an appropriate
ground point on the rack.
2 Verify that all power supplies have been removed from the switch.
3 Support the switch while you remove the rack-mounting screws holding the front mounting brackets
in place against the rack post (Figure 122).
4 Slide the switch out of the rack.
