How to select mounting brackets?

TP-Link rack-mountable switches and routers come with mounting brackets in the package. If your mounting brackets are missing, follow the steps below to select the correct ones, and contact the local subsidiary to purchase them. For local contact information, go to http://www.tp-link.com/en/contact.html.

1) Check the width of the device.

The device dimensions are printed on the top of the carton. You can also manually measure the width.

For TP-Link rack-mountable switches and routers, the width is either 440mm or 294mm. If your device’s width is 294mm, choose Mounting Bracket A shown below:

If your device’s width is 440mm, go to the next step.

2) Check the design of the device’s front face.

As the following figure shows, if the TP-Link logo, device model and device name are printed on a raised area, choose Mounting Bracket B. Otherwise, go to the next step.
