Rack-Mounting MCCAT Switches
MCCAT switches can be mounted in 1U (1.75", 4.4cm) of vertical space in
a standard 19" equipment rack. To rack-mount an MCCAT switch, use the
brackets and screws (Bracket Assy of P2-HUBPAC) that came with the
device. You can mount the MCCAT switch facing the front of the rack or
the rear.
Attaching the Cable-Support Bar (Optional)
If there are any concerns regarding the cabling weight, you can install the
cable-support bar between two rackmount brackets to bear the weight of
cables connected to the rear of MCCAT switch. Depending on how you
rack-mount the MCCAT switch, the position to attach the cable-support
bar varies:
 If the MCCAT switch's front panel will face the front of the rack, fasten
the cable-support bar to the L-shaped holes far from the ears of the
rackmount brackets.
 If the MCCAT switch's front panel will face the rear of the rack, fasten
the cable-support bar to the L-shaped holes close to the ears of the
rackmount brackets.
To attach the cable-support bar
1. Insert one end of the cable-support bar into the L-shaped hole on a
rackmount bracket, with the bar's concave slot facing the top of the
upper L-shaped hole or the bottom of the lower L-shaped hole.
