3.4 Installation in 19-inch Racks
The Fradswitch can be installed in 19-inch racks. Unit height is 1U (1.75"). The width of the Fradswitch
is slightly less than the available mounting width.
An adapter kit provides the hardware necessary for installation of the Fradswitch in 19-inch racks.
WARNING!
Disconnect the units from AC power while performing the following procedures.
The rack adapter kit for the installation includes two short brackets, which are fastened by means of screws
to the two side walls of the case, as shown in Figure 3-3.
To prepare the unit for rack installation, attach the two brackets to the side walls of the unit. Each bracket
is fastened by means of two screws (with flat washers), which are inserted into the two front holes on the side
wall (nuts are already in place, on the inner side of the wall).
After fastening the brackets, the unit is ready for installation in the 19-inch rack. Fasten the brackets to the
side rails of the 19-inch rack by means of four screws (not included in the kit), two on each side.
