[j-nsp] Rack mounting a EX4200-48PX, concerned about weight

[Bill Blackford]

I actually mounted one of these in an older cabinet where the cage
nuts were not the tightest fit, but (and I do not advocate this)
taking a laptop bag strap along the back of the chassis and up to
points on the back of the cabinet to act as a sling to help hold up
the back.

Four post rails would probably be the best solution.
