Tabletop use

Four self-adhesive rubber feet are included with the MDA EQ. For tabletop use, attach one foot at each corner of the bottom side of the unit and place the unit in the desired location.

Rack mounting

For optional rack mounting, mount the MDA EQ on one of the rack shelves or projector mounting brackets listed above. On the standard 9.5" deep rack shelves, the unit can be mounted in one of four locations to the rear of the rack or in one of four locations to the front of the rack.

NOnly products in the VersaTools and IP Link lines can be mounted on a VersaTools shelf. Any 1U rack-mountable Extron product can be mounted on the standard shelf.
