3.1.3 Rack mounting your appliance

Your KVM s2-1611 appliance ships with rack mounting brackets for easy integra- tion into your rack. Before installing the appliance and other components in the rack cabinet (if not already installed), stabilize the rack in a permanent location. Install your equipment starting at the bottom of the rack cabinet, then work to the top. Avoid uneven loading or overloading of rack cabinets.

3.1.3.1 Installing the rack mount brackets

Line up the holes in the “long side” of the kit’s side brackets with the screw holes in the switch.

With a Phillips screwdriver, fasten the mounting brackets to the switch using two 8/32” x 1/2” pan head screws on each side.

Attach the four cage nuts or clip nuts to the rack mounting flange of the rack cabinet so that the nut is positioned on the inside of the rack.

Mount the switch assembly to the rack cabinet by matching the holes in the “short side” of each bracket to an appropriate set of matching holes on your rack cabinet. Next, insert the combination hex head screws through the slots in the bracket and the holes in the mounting rail, then into the cage nuts or clip nuts.
