Installing the L Brackets and Cable Guides on the Catalyst 6506 and
Catalyst 6506-E Switches

Note

The Catalyst 6506 and Catalyst 6506-E switch chassis is normally shipped with the L brackets installed.
If the chassis does not have the L brackets installed, follow the steps in this section to install the
L brackets on your Catalyst 6506 or Catalyst 6506-E switch chassis. You can also remove the L brackets
from the front of the chassis and reattach them to the rear of the chassis.

The L brackets attach to the Catalyst 6506 and the Catalyst 6506-E switch chassis with eight M3 Phillips
countersunk-head screws (four M3 screws on each side). Attach the optional cable guides by
sandwiching them between the L brackets and the switch chassis.

Note

The L brackets for the Catalyst 6506 and Catalyst 6506-E switches are stamped with an L and an R to
identify them as left and right.

To install the L brackets and optional cable guides, follow these steps:

Step 1

Position the left (L) L bracket and the optional cable guide (if desired) against the switch chassis side,
and align the screw holes. (See

Figure 3-5

Step 2

Secure the L bracket (and optional cable guide) to the switch chassis with four M3 screws.

Step 3

Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the right (R) L bracket (and, if necessary, the optional cable guide).
