Adjustable Rack Mount Ear for 17.3in Switches

This pair of adjustable rack mount ears fits 17.3 inch network switches and installs into standard 19 inch cabinets. It targets administrators who need to secure HP, HPE, ProCurve, Aruba or OfficeConnect switches in a rack. The adjustable hole spacing covers a 29 to 40 mm range, so it suits switches whose mounting holes fall within that window.

Installation kit and common fit issues

The package supplies two ears, eight M3 screws, eight M4 screws and four cabinet kits with screws and snaps. Installers must first measure the switch hole spacing and compare it to the 29 to 40 mm adjustment range. The most frequent problem is discovering that the switch holes sit outside this range, which makes the ears unusable without modification.

29 to 40 mm adjustable hole spacing

The critical specification is the mounting hole distance, adjustable between 29 mm and 40 mm. If the switch mounting holes match this interval the ears will align and secure the unit; if they fall outside it the part will not fit. No other dimension determines compatibility.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the rack mount ears are securely installed on my 19-inch switch?

After mounting, verify the adjustable ears sit flush on both sides with the hole spacing set between 29 mm and 40 mm, then tighten the supplied M3 or M4 screws; the metal brackets should not shift when the switch is gently nudged.

What hardware is included and what must I source separately?

The package provides two adjustable mounting ears, eight M3 screws, eight M4 screws, and four cabinet kits each containing screws and snap clips; no additional fasteners are required for a standard 19-inch cabinet.

Which adjustment range should I select for my switch?

Choose the 29 mm to 40 mm adjustable range; measure your switch's mounting-hole distance and set the ears to match — any spacing within that window will fit.
