Four-Post Rack Mount
The switch is mounted onto a four-post rack by assembling two rails onto the rear posts, sliding the
switch onto the rails, then securing the switch to the front posts.
The installation kit provides two bracket-rail assemblies. The following four-post mounting parts are
extracted from each assembly:
•
Six-hole mounting bracket
•
Rail
Each chassis side has attachment pins that align with bracket holes; the number of pins (six or seven)
varies by switch model. Pin orientation is symmetric and equidistant, supporting bracket placement
where the flange is either flush with the front and rear panels, or not flush with the panels. Each bracket
hole includes a key-opening for placing the bracket flush with the chassis and then locking it into place.
Important!
Attachment pins must engage all six bracket holes.
Goupilles de fixation doivent s’engager tous les trous de support six.
