Mounting

Your UPS may be rackmounted in 4- or 2-post racks. To mount the UPS in a 4-post rack, use the included hardware and follow the procedure outlined below. To mount the UPS in a 2-post rack, purchase the appropriate hardware, sold separately (order Tripp Lite model # 2POSTRMKIT). The procedures are for common rack types and may not be appropriate for all rack configurations. User must determine the fitness of rackmount hardware and procedures before mounting.

Color Selection

Your UPS is shipped with a grey front panel, 2 grey mounting ears and 2 black mounting ears. To match grey equipment, mount the grey ears in front. If you would like your UPS to match black equipment, you may request the alternate (black) front panel for 3U UPS systems (Tripp Lite part #AC4134) by calling (773) 869-1234.
