Caution:

Do not use any other screws other than the fourteen that are

provided. Use of any longer lengths can cause damage to internal

components.

Note:

The inner rails work for all three SAN switches—SAN Switch 2/32, SAN Switch

2/16, and SAN Switch 2/8. The mounting holes in the inner rails are marked with 32,

16, and 8. Use the appropriately labeled mounting holes when installing the inner rails

on a switch. For example, to install the inner rails on the SAN Switch 2/32, use the

mounting holes labeled with 32.

When viewing a rack from the front, the left rails are used in the left side of the rack and

the right rails are used in the right side of the rack. The rails must match up—right inner

with right outer and left inner with left outer. Note that the SAN switch mounts in the

rack with its front, the port side, facing the back of the rack. The rear of the switch, the

AC side, faces the front of the rack.
