Rack Mounting the MAX-AVP

The MAX-AVP comes with rack-ears, to allow mounting the unit in a standard 19" equipment rack - the AVP will take up a single rack space.

The rack-ear kit includes two steel rack ears and eight sets of flat washers, split lock-washers, and nuts.

The MAX-AVP rack-ears (FIG. 3) feature four mounting posts, to provide a clean installation. These mounting posts require that the rack-ears are secured to the unit from inside the chassis, so you will have to remove the cover, as described below:
