CAUTION: Disconnect all cables from the switch before continuing. Remove all
self-adhesive pads from the underside of the switch, if they have been attached.
CAUTION: When mounting multiple switches into a rack, mount the switches
from the bottom up.
1 Place the supplied rack-mounting bracket on one side of the switch,
ensuring that the mounting holes on the switch line up to the mounting
holes in the rack-mounting bracket. Figure 1-7 illustrates where to mount
the brackets.

2 Insert the supplied bolts into the rack-mounting holes and tighten with a
screwdriver.
3 Repeat the process for the rack-mounting bracket on the other side of the
switch.
4 Insert the switch into the 48.26 cm (19 inch) rack, ensuring that the rack-
mounting holes on the switch line up to the mounting holes in the rack.
5 Secure the switch to the rack with either the rack bolts or cage nuts and
cage-nut bolts with washers (depending on the kind of rack you have).
Fasten the bolts on bottom before fastening the bolts on top.
CAUTION: Make sure that the supplied rack bolts fit the pre-threaded holes in the
rack.
NOTE: Make sure that the ventilation holes are not obstructed.
