RK6 Rack Kit
The optional RK6 Rack Kit It can be mounted to an F6 Modular I/O Frame using only a Phillips head screwdriver.
The kit allows the F6 to be mounted with the rack ears facing either the front or rear of the product.
The RK6 kit includes individual left and right rack ears, plus the 8 screws required to secure the rack ears to the
sides of the product. The right-side rack ear has special cutouts to allow it to clear the connectors on the F6 body.
The mounting brackets that ship with the F6 are not required for rack-mount installation. Remove them prior to
installing the F6 in an equipment rack if they have been previously installed.
