9. Attach the rear mounting-blades to the rear post by using the appropriate screws for
your rack. Tighten the screws.
10. Ensure that the switch chassis is level by verifying that all the screws on the front of
the rack are aligned with the screws at the back of the rack.
NOTE: If the switch is an EX4200-24F model, we recommend that you insert
dust covers in any unused SFP ports.

Mounting an EX4200 Switch in a Recessed Position in a Rack or Cabinet
You can mount an EX4200 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 an uplink module with transceivers installed in it—the
transceivers in the uplink module 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 EX4200 Switch on Four Posts in a Rack or Cabinet” on page 133. To mount
the switch in a recessed position on two posts, follow the instructions in “Mounting an
EX4200 Switch on Two Posts in a Rack or Cabinet” on page 130.
