  4. Secure the equipment rack using the screws.

Four-post Rack Mount

This section provides instructions for mounting the switch in a four-post rack.

The switch is mounted onto a four-post rack by assembling two rails onto the rear posts, sliding the switch onto the rails, and then securing the switch to the front posts.

The installation kit provides the following four-post mounting parts:
  • Two six-hole mounting brackets
  • Two rail rods
  • Two rail slides

The rail rods and rail slides assemble into two identical slide rails.

Each chassis side has attachment pins that align with bracket holes. Pin orientation is symmetric and equidistant, supporting bracket placements where the flange is flush with the front panel, flush with the rear panel, or not flush with either panel. 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 at least five of the six bracket holes.

 

Goupilles de fixation doivent être lock au moins cinq des trous du six support.

 

The following topics are covered in this section:

Attaching Mounting Brackets to the Chassis

This section describes the steps to attach mounting brackets to the chassis.

The following figure displays the front bracket alignment for mounting the switch into a four-post rack.
Figure 10. Attaching the Mounting Brackets

  1. Align the mounting brackets with the attachment pins to obtain the desired mounting position.
  2. Place the bracket flush to the chassis with the attachment pins protruding through the key openings.
  3. Slide the bracket toward the front flange until the bracket clip locks with an audible click.

    To remove the mounting bracket from the chassis, lift the front edge of the mounting bracket clip with a flat-head screwdriver and slide the bracket away from the front flange (opposite from the installation direction).

Assembling the Rails onto the Equipment Rack

Rail rods and rail slides assemble into two identical rails. Each rail connects a front post to a rear post. When the rails are installed, the switch slides on the rails into the rack. Each bracket includes a screw that attaches the switch to the rail.

Each end of an assembled rail contains two rack plugs. The rails are installed into a rack by inserting the plugs into the rack slots. When installing rails into rack posts with threaded or rounded holes, remove all plugs on both sides of the assembled rails and install them with bolts that fit the rack.
Figure 11. Attaching the Four-Post Mounting Brackets


 
1 Attach rail slide to the switch 4 Bracket clip (attached)
2 Slide rail rod onto rail slide 5 Bracket clip (aligned)
3 Attach bracket clip    

 

  1. Slide a rail rod into a rail slide until the rail clip makes an audible click.
    The rail clip prevents the rail from extending beyond the maximum supported distance between the front and rear rack posts.
    Figure 12. Assembling the Rails


     
    1 Rail slide 3 Rack plugs
    2 Rail rod 4 Rail (assembled)
     
  2. Attach the rail to the right rear rack post by inserting rod-end rack plugs into post slots. The slide assembly must be on the side of the post facing the router.
    If the rack plugs were previously removed, use bolts to attach the rail to the rack.

     

  3. Attach the slide end of the rail to the front post by extending the rail end past the post, then contracting the rail while guiding the rack plugs into the post.
     
  4. Repeat Step 1 through Step 3 for the left posts. Ensure the rails are on the same horizontal level.

Attaching the Switch into the Rack

Once the rails are installed, the switch slides into the rack. Each bracket includes a thumb screw that attaches the switch to the rail.

  1. Lift the switch into the rack and insert the mounting brackets into the slide rails.
    Figure 14. Inserting the Switch onto the Rails

  2. Slide the switch on the rails, toward the rear posts, until the mounting bracket flanges are flush with the rail flanges attached to the rack posts.
  3. Attach the bracket flanges to the rack post using the quick-release thumb screws supplied with the brackets.
