Complete Hardware Guide for EX8208 Ethernet Switches

Figure 2: EX8208 Switch

You can mount an EX8200 switch on a standard 19-in. four-post rack or a standard 800-mm enclosed cabinet. Up to three EX8208 switches can be installed in a standard (42 rack unit (U)) rack provided the rack can handle their combined weight.

Lift handles are provided on either side of the switch to facilitate the handling of a chassis with only the backplane installed.

WARNING: Do not use the lift handles to lift the chassis unless the chassis is empty (that is, contains only the backplane). Failure to heed this warning can result in injury. See “Mounting an EX8208 Switch on a Rack or Cabinet Using a Mechanical Lift” on page 141 or “Mounting an EX8208 Switch on a Rack or Cabinet Without Using a Mechanical Lift” on page 143 for instructions for moving a loaded chassis.
