Mounting the Hub in a Rack

The hub ships with two (2) multi-position mounting ears and four (4)
mounting screws.

Figure 2-1 shows the orientation of the mounting ears for attaching the
ears to the hub for a rack mount application. Mount the hub with the front
panel facing forward. Do the following:

1.

Mount one of the ears to the hub using two (2) of the supplied screws.
Repeat this step for the other side of the hub.

2.

Slide the hub into the rack and align the holes in the rack mounting
ears with the holes in the rack rails.

3.

Insert and tighten appropriate rack-mounting screws (not provided).

4.

Refer to "Connecting Hubs to the Stack’s Backplane" on page 16.

The mounting screws are used to attach the mount-
ing ears to the hub. Once the ears are attached to
the hub, you will need to provide appropriate screws
to mount the hub in a rack.
