RACKMOUNTING
20 MULTISTATION INSTALLATION AND OPERATIONS MANUAL
Rackmount kit
Rackmount kits are available to mount your MultiStation in a 19”, 23”, or a 24”
rack. See appendix C for description and part numbers.
The optional rack mount kit includes the following items:
 Black anodized rack mounting shelf
 Four mounting screws.
To rack mount your MultiStation, place the unit on the shelf from the rear and
slide the unit forward into the front panel cut-out until the mounting holes in
the bottom of the unit match up with the mounting holes in the rackmount
shelf. Secure the unit to the shelf with the provided mounting screws. Secure
the rack mount shelf to the rack using the appropriate size bolts, nuts and lock
washers.
The following guidelines should be observed when installing.
a). Do not exceed the operating temperature of 0 ο C to 45 ο C.
b). Do not block power supply vents or restrict airflow.
c). Mechanical loading of the rack should be considered to prevent
instability and possible tipping over.
d). Tighten all connectors securely and provide adequate strain relief for all
cables.
e). Provide a grounded power source to all Units. Pay special attention to
overall branch circuit load ratings before connecting equipment to this
source. Overloaded circuits are potential fire hazards and can cause
equipment failures or poor performance.
