Mounting the PDU

Note: The illustrations may differ somewhat from your PDU model. Regardless of configuration, the user must determine the fitness of hardware and procedures before mounting. The PDU and included hardware are designed for common rack and rack enclosure types and may not be appropriate for all applications. Exact mounting configurations may vary. Screws for attaching the mounting brackets and cord retention shelf to the PDU are included. Use only the screws supplied by the manufacturer, or their exact equivalent (#6-32, ¼" flat head).
