4. Install three 10-32 screws on each rail.

5. Tighten the fourth screw.

▼ To Attach Mounting Rails for Four 8- Port Switches

1. Mount the first two switches.

See “To Attach Mounting Rails for Two 8-port Switches” on page 42.

2. Before you install the rails into the cabinet, loosely start two stopper screws into each rail (see FIGURE 4-2).

3. Working from the back of the cabinet, loosely start two screws for the mounting rails into the cabinet (see FIGURE 4-2).

Refer to the Rackmount Placement Matrix for the locations of the screw holes for your configuration.

4. Working from the front of the cabinet, install the mounting rails by sliding the slot in each rail onto the screw.

The large hole is oriented near the rear for both rails. Use the slot marked L for the left rail. Use the slot marked R for the right rail. (FIGURE 4-2)
