Stacking and Rack Mounting

The KVM Over the NET™ switch can be stacked on the desktop or rack mounted in a variety of ways. The following sections take you through the procedures for each method.

Stacking

The KVM Over the NET™ switch can be placed on any appropriate level surface that can safely support its weight plus the weight of its attached cables. To place the switch, or to stack units if you are daisy-chaining them, remove the backing material from the bottom of the rubber feet that came with your package, and stick them onto the switch’s bottom panel at the corners, as shown in the diagram, below:

Note: To ensure adequate ventilation, allow at least 5.1 cm on each side, and 12.7 cm behind the unit for power cord and cable clearance.
