Installation and Operation

Installation Overview

The distribution amplifiers can be mounted on tabletops, in racks and under furniture. Through-desk mounting is not recommended for these products. To install these units, follow these steps:

1.Turn off all electrical equipment. Make sure that the input sources, the distribution amplifier, and the output displays are all turned off, disconnected from their power sources, and connecting cables have been removed.

2.Mount the unit (see "Mounting the Distribution Amplifier" below).

3.Connect the Cables (see "Operation" on pages 2-8 to 2-12).

4.Plug in the power supply and turn on the display devices and input devices.

Mounting the Distribution Amplifier

The 1 U, full rack size of these distribution amplifiers allows them to be mounted on a tabletop, on racks, or under furniture.

Tabletop placement

Attach the four included rubber feet to the bottom of the unit and place it in any convenient location.

Rack Mounting

UL requirements for rack mounting

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) concerns are relevant to the safe installation of these distribution amplifiers in a rack:

1. Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the unit is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma: +122 °F, +50 ° C) specified by Extron.

2. Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so that the equipment gets adequate air flow for safe operation.

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

4. Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit
