Rack Mounting

UL Guidelines for Rack Mounting

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines are relevant to the safe installation of these products in a rack:

1.Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the unit is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma: +122 °F, +50 °C) specified by Extron.

2.Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so that the equipment gets adequate air flow for safe operation.

3.Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that uneven mechanical loading does not create a hazardous condition.

4.Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Consider the equipment nameplate ratings when addressing this concern.

5.Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as the use of power strips).

Rack Mounting Procedure

The unit can be mounted on any of the optional Extron rack systems. To mount the unit on a rack shelf, follow the instructions provided with the shelf kit.

Under-desk Mounting

Mount the unit under a desk or podium, using an optional Extron under‑desk mounting kit. Follow the instructions provided with the kit.
