Mounting a USB HUB4 MAAP to a mounting bracket

Rack mounting the USB HUB4

You can mount the HUB4 to an optional rack shelf or directly onto a rack using an Extron rack space frame, such as the CPM112R (for the MAAP model) or the AAP 301/302 (for the AAP model). See “Optional accessories” in appendix A, “Reference information”, for a list of rack shelves and rack space frames that can be used with the two USB HUB4 models.

UL guidelines for rack mounting

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the installation of the USB HUB4 onto the front of a rack:

Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the equipment is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.

Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

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

Circuit overloading — When connecting the equipment to the supply circuit, consider the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Consider equipment nameplate ratings when addressing this concern.

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).
