Abstract
A mounting system, in one embodiment, includes two support ears, each support ear adapted for securing an electronic component to a rack. Each support ear includes a planar portion which includes at least one hole for receiving one or more fasteners for coupling to a side of the electronic component and a portion extending perpendicular to the planar portion having a frontal area. The perpendicular portion includes at least one pin positioned on a side opposite the frontal area for engaging with at least one hole in the rack, the at least one pin extending normal to the perpendicular portion in a direction about parallel to a plane of the planar portion, and a first fastener positioned on the side opposite the frontal area for coupling to the rack, the first fastener extending normal to the perpendicular portion in the direction about parallel to the plane of the planar portion.
