2.1 Rackmounting Instructions for Console KVMs
The NetDirector Console KVM Switch is designed for mounting in a 1U rack system. For
convenience, a rack mounting kit is included with your KVM for quick installation. The
various mounting options are explained in the sections that follow:
Note:
1. It is recommended that the unit be installed by two people; one to hold it in place and the other to attach it to the
rack.
2. The rackmounting kit that comes with the unit does not include screws or cage nuts. Contact your rack dealer for
this hardware.
3. Allow at least 5.1 cm on each side for proper ventilation, and at least 12.7 cm at the rear of the unit for the power
cord and cable kits.
Standard Rackmounting
1 Slide out the rear mounting brackets from the console and mount both brackets
(separate from the console) to the inside rear of a standard 1U rack system using user-
supplied screws.
2 Take the console and gently slide it into the two rear-mounted brackets in the rack and
secure the console in place by inserting user-supplied screws.
2. Installation
2.2 Rackmounting for B022-U16

2-Post Rackmounting
The NetDirector Console KVM Switch can also be mounted in a 2-post rack installation
using the optional 2-Post Rackmount Kit (model: B019-000). The mounting hardware
allows for the console to be opened with the drawer in any position. Heavy-duty 14-gauge
steel provides stability and prevents the console frame from twisting. See the B019-000
instructional manual for detailed mounting instructions.
