Installing the Fixed Rail Kit

The SAN Switch 2/8 Fixed Rack Mount Kit consists of two rail assemblies. Read the following sections for complete instructions on attaching the rails to the switch, then installing the switch in the rack.

1.Attach the left and right front brackets to the switch chassis as follows:

a.Position one left front bracket (Item 1) with the flat side against right side of switch, oriented as shown in Figure 6.

Note: Four sets of holes are provided to allow the switch to be set back from the front of the rack, if desired. This allows a more gradual bend in any fiber optic cables connected to the switch.

b.Insert two 8-32 x 5/16 inch screws (Item 7) into one of the pairs of vertically aligned holes in both the bracket and in the switch.

c.Insert one 8-32 x 5/16 inch screw (Item 7) into one of the single holes in both the bracket and in the switch.

d.Tighten screws to a torque of 15-inch pounds.
