The G8264CS switch supports optional adjustable 19-inch, 4-post rack installation kit, part number 00D6185.

Optionally, Air Inlet Duct, part number 00D6060, can be ordered with the G8264CS (rear-to-front airflow) switch for

4-post rack installations with the Adjustable 4-post Rail Kit (00D6185).

The G8264CS (front-to-rear airflow) switch also supports optional recessed 19-inch, 4-post rack kit (00CG089)

together with the Switch Seal Kit (00Y3001) that are used when the switch is installed in the Intelligent Cluster™

Rack (MT 1410), Enterprise Rack (MT 9363), or PureFlex® System Rack (MT 9363) with NeXtScale™ System. The

G8264CS (front-to-rear airflow) switch also supports 4-post iDataPlex® rack kit (90Y3535) which is used when the

switch is installed in the iDataPlex Rack.

The G8264CS switch ships standard without any AC power cables. Table 2 lists the part numbers and feature codes

to order the power cables (two power cables are required per switch).

Supported cables and transceivers

With the flexibility of the G8264CS switch, clients can take advantage of the technologies that they require for

multiple environments:

For 1 GbE links, clients can use RJ-45 UTP cables up to 100 m with 1000BASE-T SFP transceivers. Clients

that need longer distances can leverage the 1000BASE-SX SFP transceivers, which can drive distances up to
