Install the Rack PDU

Mounting options

You can install the Rack PDU in one of two ways: using toolless mounting pegs (provided) or mounting brackets (provided). The 1-U and 2-U horizontal Rack PDUs must be mounted using the horizontal mounting brackets.

Vertical mounting.

To install the Rack PDU using the toolless mounting method, install it in the rear of the NetShelter® VX or SX Enclosure, in the cable channel directly behind the rear vertical mounting rails.

To install the Rack PDU using the mounting brackets, install it on a vertical mounting rail on your rack or enclosure.

Horizontal mounting.

To install the Rack PDU using the horizontal mounting brackets, install the brackets on the Rack PDU and then attach the PDU to the rack using caged nuts (provided with your enclosure).

Toolless mounting

1.Slide both mounting pegs into the holes located in the channel in the rear panel of the enclosure.

2.Snap the Rack PDU into place by pushing it downward until it locks into position.
