Dell PowerConnect J-Series J-EX8208 Ethernet Switch Hardware Guide Figure 37: Adjustable Mounting Brackets Installed in a Four-Post Rack (J-EX8208 Switch) Related Documentation • Mounting a J-EX8208 Switch on a Rack or Cabinet Using a Mechanical Lift on page 104 • Mounting a J-EX8208 Switch on a Rack or Cabinet Without Using a Mechanical Lift on page 107 Installing the Power Cord Tray in a Rack or Cabinet for a J-EX8200 Switch The power cord tray is supplied with all J-EX8200 switches. The power cord tray is optional for four-post rack or cabinet installation but mandatory for a two-post rack or cabinet installation. (The remainder of this topic uses "rack" to mean "rack or cabinet.") To mount a J-EX8208 switch in a two-post rack, you must install the power cord tray in the rack before installing the switch. The power cord tray provides support for the front of the J-EX8208 chassis during installation of the switch in a two-post rack. The front edge of the chassis rests on the upper edge (lip) of the power cord tray. The power cord tray provides a place to organize and tie down the power cords for the power supplies. The power cord tray uses 1 U of rack space, so the total space occupied by a J-EX8208 switch chassis and power cord tray is 15 U. Ensure that you have the following tools and parts available to install the power cord tray: • A Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 1, 2, or 3, depending on the size of your rack mounting screws • A flat-blade (-) screwdriver if you are installing the power cord tray in a rack with square, nonthreaded holes • 4 mounting screws-and 4 cage nuts and washers if your rack requires them-of the appropriate size to attach the power cord tray to the rack (provided for two-post rack installation) 98
