Mounting an EX2200 Switch in a Recessed Position in a Rack or Cabinet

You can mount an EX2200 switch in a rack or cabinet such that the switch is recessed inside the rack from the rack front by 2 inches. You can use the 2-in.-recess front brackets provided in the separately orderable four-post rack-mount kit to mount the switch in a recessed position.

Reasons that you might want to mount the switch in a recessed position include:

You are mounting the switch in a cabinet and the cabinet doors will not close completely unless the switch is recessed.

The switch you are mounting has transceivers installed in the uplink ports—the transceivers in the uplink ports protrude from the front of the switch.

To mount the switch in a recessed position on four posts, follow the instructions in “Mounting an EX2200 Switch on Four Posts in a Rack or Cabinet” on page 57. To mount the switch in a recessed position on two posts, follow the instructions in “Mounting an EX2200 Switch on Two Posts in a Rack or Cabinet” on page 55.

Mounting an EX2200 Switch on a Wall

You can mount an EX2200 switch on a wall by using the separately orderable wall-mount kit.

WARNING:

When mounting an EX2200 switch chassis in a vertical position, orient the front panel of the chassis downward to ensure proper airflow and meet safety requirements in the event of a fire.

When wall mounting Power over Ethernet (PoE) models (EX2200-24P and EX2200-48P), install the wall-mount baffle above the units to reduce the risk of objects or substances falling into the air exhaust or power supply, which could cause a fire.

Before mounting the switch on a wall:

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

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