2.1 Rackmounting Instructions for Console KVMs

The NetDirector Console KVM Switch is designed for mounting in a 1U rack system. For convenience, a rack mounting kit is included with your KVM for quick installation. The various mounting options are explained in the sections that follow:

Note:

1.It is recommended that the unit be installed by two people; one to hold it in place and the other to attach it to the rack.

2.The rackmounting kit that comes with the unit does not include screws or cage nuts. Contact your rack dealer for this hardware.

3.Allow at least 5.1 cm on each side for proper ventilation, and at least 12.7 cm at the rear of the unit for the power cord and cable kits.

Standard Rackmounting

1Slide out the rear mounting brackets from the console and mount both brackets

(separate from the console) to the inside rear of a standard 1U rack system using user- supplied screws.

2Take the console and gently slide it into the two rear-mounted brackets in the rack and secure the console in place by inserting user-supplied screws.

2-Post Rackmounting

The NetDirector Console KVM Switch can also be mounted in a 2-post rack installation using the optional 2-Post Rackmount Kit (model: B019-000). The mounting hardware allows for the console to be opened with the drawer in any position. Heavy-duty 14-gauge steel provides stability and prevents the console frame from twisting. See the B019-000 instructional manual for detailed mounting instructions.
