Installation

The SMR 821 is designed to be installed in a standard EIA equipment rack.

 

Since the depth of the unit is only 8-3/4”, you can use practically any size

 

rack. Using only a single EIA rack space, the SMR 821 includes integral rack

 

mounting ears and does not require any additional hardware for rack mount-

 

ing.......other than the rack screws!

 

All connections for the SMR 821 are made on the rear panel. It is recom-

 

mended that you provide an additional 4” of clearance between the rear of

 

the chassis and the interior rear of your equipment rack for wiring harnesses.

 

Since every connection to the SMR 821 is easy to disconnect, the unit can be

 

removed from an equipment rack easily, without have to disturb fixed

 

wiring harnesses.

 

Although the SMR 821 does not generate enough heat to warrant forced air

 

or convection cooling, it is recommended that you provide a single rack

 

space vent above, and below the unit when rack mounting. Using common

 

sense when installing this unit will ensure that it will provide years of trou-

 

ble free service. In installations where there are multiple power amplifiers, it

 

is further recommended that the SMR 821 be located more toward the top of

 

the rack, while power amplifiers remain near the bottom. This is generally

 

considered to be standard rack design in the commercial audio industry.

 

Following this convention will ensure adequate rack cooling and reliable

 

operation from the SMR 821.
