[James Baker]

Yeah I had a thought about that, however they are quite pricey

Thanks anyway

James-
I would suggest using the 4 post rack mounts for the EX4200. Juniper has them on the price list. They do sag a little too much for my taste as well, and with the bigger PSUs... yikes!
I've seen them after a year on a 2 post stock mount and they were fine physically, though. 

HTH

I've got a couple of new EX4200-48PX with dual 930W power supply which have just arrived and I'm quite concerned about the weight of the units in relation to the rack ears. It is the same ears for the EX4200/3200 family.

Has anyone racked these before, if so how much sag do you get and do you suggest a shelve underneath?

I've seen what a Cisco2811 does and how much it sags and this will be a lot worse.

Thanks

James
