up the two screw holes on the bracket with the screw holes on the side of the rack.
Figure 6 Mounting the Switch on a Rack
2 Using a #2 Philips screwdriver, install the M5 flat head screws through the mounting bracket holes
into the rack.
3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 to attach the second mounting bracket on the other side of the rack.
2.4 Wall Mounting (for GS2200-8 only)
Do the following to attach your Switch to a wall.
Insecure mounting may damage the device or cause injury. ZyXEL is not
responsible for damages incurred by insecure wall-mounting.
1 Screw the two screws provided with your Switch into the wall 135 mm apart (see Figure 7 on page
30). See Figure 8 on page 30 for the size of screws to use.
Do not screw the screws all the way in to the wall; leave a small gap between the head of the screw
and the wall.
The gap must be big enough for the screw heads to slide into the screw slots and the connection
cables to run down the back of the Switch.
Note: Make sure the screws are securely fixed to the wall and strong enough to hold the
weight of the Switch with the connection cables.
