Mounting a QFX5100 Device in a Rack or Cabinet
You can mount all QFX5100 switches on a four post 19-in. rack or cabinet using the
mounting kit provided with the device.
For four post rack or cabinet installations, the mounting kit contains two front mounting
rails with two matching rear mounting blades. This configuration allows either end of the
switch to be mounted flush with the rack and still be adjustable for racks with different
depths.
The mounting kit for the QFX5100-96S has mounting rails, blades, and brackets for the
four-post configuration.
(The remainder of this topic uses “rack” to mean “rack or cabinet.”) The front and rear
rack rails must be spaced between 28 in. (71.1 cm) and 36 in. (91.4 cm) front to back.

Before You Begin Rack Installation
Before you begin mounting a QFX5100 switch in the rack or cabinet:
1. Ensure that you understand how to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage.
See “Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage” on page 263.
2. Verify that the site meets the requirements described in “Site Preparation Checklist
for a QFX5100 Device” on page 67.
3. Place the rack in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearance for airflow and
maintenance, and secure it to the building structure.
