NOTE: If you need to mount the switch in a recessed position on either a two-post rack or a four-post rack, you can use the 2-in.-recess front brackets provided in the separately orderable four-post rack-mount kit.

Before mounting the switch on four posts in a rack:

•Verify that the site meets the requirements described in “Site Preparation Checklist for EX2200 Switches” on page 33.

•Place the rack in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearance for airflow and maintenance, and secure it to the building structure.

•Read “General Safety Guidelines and Warnings for EX Series Switches” on page 113, withparticularattentionto“ChassisLiftingGuidelinesforEX2200Switches”onpage128.

•Remove the switch from the shipping carton (see “Unpacking an EX2200 Switch” on page 52).

Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:

•Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2

•6 flat-head 4-40 mounting screws (provided with the four-post rack-mount kit)

•8 flat-head 4x6-mm Phillips mounting screws (provided with the four-post rack-mount kit)

•One pair each of flush or 2-in.-recess front brackets

•One pair of side-rail brackets

•One pair of rear brackets

•Screws to secure the chassis and the rear brackets to the rack (not provided)

CAUTION: If you are mounting multiple units on a rack, mount the heaviest unit at the bottom of the rack and mount the other units from the bottom of the rack to the top in decreasing order of the weight of the units.
