Extron electronic SMD 101 manual Rack Mounting, Furniture Mounting, Table or Wall Mounting

Rack Mounting

For optional rack mounting, do not install the rubber feet. Mount the SMD 101 on a 19 inch universal or basic rack shelf. Follow the instructions included with the rack mount kit to install the SMD 101.

UL Rack Mounting Guidelines

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the safe installation of the SMD 101 in a rack.

1.Elevated operating ambient temperature — If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment can be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the unit 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 a rack so that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

3.Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

4.Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

5.Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).

Furniture Mounting

Furniture mount the SMD 101 using an optional under‑desk or through‑desk mounting kit. Follow the instructions included with the mounting kit.

Table or Wall Mounting

Extron table or wall mounting brackets extend approximately 1/4 inch (6.4 mm) above the top surface of the SMD 101 enclosure. This design allows for an air space between the mounting surface and the enclosure. Follow the instructions included with the mounting kit.
