Installation Tasks

The following is an overview of the installation tasks detailed in this section:

Step 1 If applicable, remove the doors of the rack.

Step 2 Mark the rack, allowing 14 U (24.50 inches) of vertical space to install the SFS 7024 switch.

Step 3 Install the support rails.

Step 4 Rack mount the switch.

Step 5 If applicable, replace the rack’s doors.

Mounting Kit

The mounting kit hardware contains all of the necessary parts for installing and mounting the SFS 7024 switch into a rack. These kits are intended for use in cabinets with a depth ranging from 28 - 34 inches.

Note If the rack is less than 28”, or more than 34” deep, instead of using the rails, a support shelf able to support 175 lbs is required.

Mounting Hardware Kit Contents:

•Kit Mounting Rails containing:

–One pair (left and right) of support rail assemblies

•Kit Mounting Hardware 3/8” Square Hole containing:

–Eight 10/32” x 0.375” pan-head Phillips screws

–Eight caged nut adapters for square-holed racks

Mark the Rack

Allow 14U (24.50 inches) of vertical space to install the SFS 7024 switch in the rack.

Step 1 Determine the location on the rack of the bottom of the switch.

Step 2 Mark the upper and lower mounting positions on the vertical rails on the front of the rack.

Step 3 Mark the upper and lower mounting positions on the vertical rails on the back of the rack.

Install the Rails in the Rack

Note The front flange (chassis fan side) of the rail has 3 holes. The back flange of the rail (chassis leaf module side) has two holes, which correspond to the bottom two holes on the front flange.

Step 1 Install the caged nuts into the 2 back holes (chassis leaf module side) and the top and bottom holes (chassis fan side) in the front of the rack.
