Chapter 5 Installing the BCM1000 73

Installing the BCM1000 on the wall

To mount the BCM1000 on the wall, you need:

two rack mounting brackets or a wall-mount bracket kit

four #10 x 2.5 cm (#10 x 1 in.) round head wood screws

a plywood backboard 2 cm (3/4 in.) thick

Caution: Refer to “Environment checklist” on page 67 for acceptable environmental conditions before selecting a location for the BCM1000.

Follow these steps to install the bracket:

Note: You may use the two rack mounting brackets to do a wall installation. Or you can order a wall-mount kit, which contains a bracket that runs the entire length of the base unit. Refer to Figure 30.

1Align the screw holes on one side of the base unit with both rack mounting brackets or with one of the wall mounting brackets.

Note: The brackets suspend the BCM1000 on the wall. Consider the direction you want the media bay modules to face, left or right, when you choose the side to install the rack mounting brackets on.

2Fasten the bracket to the base unit using the screws provided with the bracket. Refer to Figure 30.

Caution: Use only the screws supplied with the rack mounting brackets. Do not replace screws. Other screws can damage the BCM1000.
