With a Phillips screwdriver, fasten the mounting brackets to the switch using two 8/32" x 1/2" pan head screws on each side. 3. Mount the switch assembly to the rack by matching the long slots on each bracket to an appropriate set of holes on your equipment rack. Next, insert a combination hex head screw through the slots in the bracket and the holes in the side brace. Cap the screw with a hex serrated flange nut and tighten. NOTE: The mounting holes on the upper and lower side braces in a rack side compartment must be between 50.8 cm (20.0 in.) and 57.3 cm (22.6 in.) apart. If your rack cabinet has movable side braces, refer to your rack documentation for information about relocating side braces if they are not already spaced for this installation.
