To install the Juniper EX4100 and EX4100-F Ethernet Switches in a rack, follow these steps:
1. Place the switch on a flat, stable surface.
2. Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to the ESD grounding point on the switch.
3. Lift the switch and position it in the rack, ensuring that the AIR IN labels on the fan modules are facing the cold aisle or the AIR OUT labels on the fan modules are facing the hot aisle.
4. Line up the bottom hole in each mounting bracket with a hole in each rack post, ensuring that the switch is level.
5. While holding the switch in place, have a second person insert and tighten the rack mount screws to secure the mounting brackets to the rack posts. Tighten the screws in the two bottom holes first, and then tighten the screws in the two top holes.
6. Check that the mounting brackets on each side of the rack are lined up with each other.
For more detailed instructions and illustrations, refer to the "Install the EX4100 and EX4100-F Switch in a Rack" section of the JUNIPer EX4100 Ethernet Switch User Guide.
Note: If you want to install the switch in a four-post rack or on the wall, you'll need to order separate mounting kits.
