Rugged Outback RS416 Rack Mounting, 19” Rack Mount Adapters, Rack mount adapter mounting location

4.1.1 Rack Mounting

The RS416 can be rack mounted using the included rack mount adapter assemblies shown in Figure 3. Secure the one rack mount adapter to the front of each side of the chassis using the included black PAN head Philips screws in the positions shown in Figure 4. The entire chassis can then be mounted to a standard 19” rack. An additional two rack mount adapters are included to optionally secure the rear of the chassis in high-vibration, or seismically active locations.

NOTE: Since heat within the RS416 is channeled to the enclosure, it is recommended that 1 rack unit of space (1.75”) be kept unpopulated and free of equipment above each RS416 product to allow for a small amount of convectional airflow. Although forced airflow is not necessary, any increase in airflow will result in a reduction of ambient temperature that will improve long-term reliability of all equipment mounted within the rack space.
