Attaching Brackets to the Catalyst 3550-24, 3550-24-DC, 3550-24-FX, 3550-24PWR, and
3550-48 Switches
The bracket orientation and the brackets that you use depend on whether you are attaching the brackets
for a 19-inch or a 24-inch rack. For 19-inch racks, use bracket part number 700-8209-01; for 24-inch
racks, use bracket part number 700-13248-01. Figure 2-7 through Figure 2-12 show how to attach each
type bracket to one side of the switch. Follow the same steps to attach the second bracket to the opposite
side.
Note Before you attach the brackets on the Catalyst 3550-24-FX switch, remove the screws that are on the
bottom-front of the chassis. Attach the bracket by using the supplied Phillips flat-head screws, as shown
in Figure 2-7.
