Mounting an EX3200 or EX4200 Switch on a Desk or Other Level Surface
You can mount an EX3200 or EX4200 switch on a desk or other level surface by
using the 4 rubber feet that are shipped with the switch. The rubber feet stabilize
the chassis.
Before mounting an EX3200 or EX4200 switch on a desk or other level surface:
■Verify that the site meets the requirements described in Site Preparation Checklist
for EX3200 and EX4200 Switches.
■Place the desk in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearance for airflow
and maintenance, and secure it to the building structure.
■Read General Safety Guidelines and Warnings for EX Series Switches, with
particular attention to Chassis Lifting Guidelines for EX3200 and EX4200 Switches.
■Remove the switch from the shipping carton (see Unpacking an EX3200 or
EX4200 Switch).
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
■4 rubber feet to stabilize the chassis on the a desk or other level surface (provided
in the accessory box shipped with the switch)
■Dust covers for ports (for EX4200-24F switches only; optional)
To mount the switch on a desk or other level surface:
1. Turn the chassis upside down on the desk or the level surface where you intend
to mount the switch.
2. Attach the rubber feet to the bottom of the chassis, as shown in Figure 1.
3. Turn the chassis right side up on the desk or the level surface.
4. If it is an EX4200-24F switch, we recommend you insert dust covers in unused
SFP ports.
