a.Set one of the wide bracket pieces against the inside of the rack. The flange of the bracket faces outward, and wraps around to rest against the outside of the rear rack post.

b.Align the holes of the bracket piece with the holes of the rack post. This varies slightly depending on your rack; however, in most cases, the bottom of the bracket should be aligned with the 1U hash mark.

The switch and shelf will take up 5Us for the Topspin 360 or 6Us.
