Rack Mount Ear Positioning

If you are installing the SSA switch using the SSA-FB-MOUNTKIT optional rack mount kit, proceed to Optional Rack Mount Rail Kit Installation.

When shipped from the factory, the SSA switch has rack mount ears attached to the edge of the side of the switch containing the I/O ports in a flush mount configuration, as shown in callout 1, SSA Switch Rack Configurations. If you are mounting the switch using the factory positioning of the rack mount ears, go to Securing the SSA Switch to the Rack.

The rack mount ears can be repositioned providing three alternative mounting options, which are described in the following topics:

• Flush-Mount Configuration with Power Supply Facing Front
• Mid-Mount Configuration with I/O Ports Facing Front
• Mid-Mount Configuration with Power Supply Facing Front
