Mounting an EX2200 Switch in a Recessed Position in a Rack or Cabinet
You can mount an EX2200 switch in a rack or cabinet such that the switch is recessed
inside the rack from the rack front by 2 inches. You can use the 2-in.-recess front brackets
provided in the separately orderable four-post rack-mount kit to mount the switch in a
recessed position.
Reasons that you might want to mount the switch in a recessed position include:
• You are mounting the switch in a cabinet and the cabinet doors will not close completely
unless the switch is recessed.
• The switch you are mounting has transceivers installed in the uplink ports—the
transceivers in the uplink ports protrude from the front of the switch.
To mount the switch in a recessed position on four posts, follow the instructions in
“Mounting an EX2200 Switch on Four Posts in a Rack or Cabinet” on page 57. To mount
the switch in a recessed position on two posts, follow the instructions in “Mounting an
EX2200 Switch on Two Posts in a Rack or Cabinet” on page 55.

Mounting an EX2200 Switch on a Wall
You can mount an EX2200 switch on a wall by using the separately orderable wall-mount
kit.
WARNING:
When mounting an EX2200 switch chassis in a vertical position, orient the
front panel of the chassis downward to ensure proper airflow and meet
safety requirements in the event of a fire. •
• When wall mounting Power over Ethernet (PoE) models (EX2200-24P
and EX2200-48P), install the wall-mount baffle above the units to reduce
the risk of objects or substances falling into the air exhaust or power supply,
which could cause a fire.
Before mounting the switch on a wall:
• Verify that the site meets the requirements described in “Site Preparation Checklist
for EX2200 Switches” on page 33.
• Read “General Safety Guidelines and Warnings for EX Series Switches” on page 113,
with particular attention to “Chassis Lifting Guidelines for EX2200 Switches” on page 128.
