Note Ensure the C bracket is oriented so that it blocks the fewest airflow holes on the chassis; the holes should be slightly closer to the bottom of the brackets and the text on the back of the bracket should be right side up.

b.Repeat with the other C bracket on the other side of the switch.

Installing the Cisco MDS 9200 Series Rear-Facing into Cabinet

To install the switch rear-facing in a cabinet using the rack-mount kit provided with the switch, for cabinets with insufficient front-facing clearance, follow these steps:

Step 1 Position the chassis in the rack, inserting the back of the chassis between the rear mounting rails (see Figure 2-13). Use the 12-24 x 3/4-in. or 10-32 x 3/4-in. screws (depending on the type of rack) to attach the front rack-mount brackets to the mounting rails (three per side).

If you are installing the optional cable guides, place the cable guides in front of the front rack-mount brackets, and then pass the screws through the cable guides, front rack-mount brackets, and mounting rail. You can install one or both cable guides; if installing a single cable guide, it can be installed on either side.
