Attaching Brackets to the Catalyst 3550-24, 3550-24-DC, 3550-24-FX, 3550-24PWR,
and 3550-48 Switches
The bracket orientation and the brackets that you use depend on whether you are
attaching the brackets for a 19-inch or a 24-inch rack. For 19-inch racks, use
bracket part number 700-8209-01; for 24-inch racks, use bracket part number
700-13248-01. Figure 3-7 through Figure 3-12 show how to attach each type
bracket to one side of the switch. Follow the same steps to attach the second
bracket to the opposite side.
Note Before you attach the brackets on the Catalyst 3550-24-FX switch, remove the
screws that are on the bottom-front of the chassis. Attach the bracket by using the
supplied Phillips flat-head screws, as shown in Figure 3-7.
