Installing AHM-64
2.1
Free standing
For free standing or shelf operation, check that the plastic feet are fitted. Ensure adequate air flow around
the unit. It must not be covered in any way. Always stand the unit on a firm flat surface away from any soft
furnishings or carpet.
2.2
Rack mounting
AHM-64 is 19-inch rack mountable and occupies 2U of rack space. The plastic feet may need to be removed
before rack mounting; retain them for future use.
Ensure natural convection of airflow around the unit by allowing good ventilation in
front of and behind the unit. Rack equipment known to produce a significant amount
of heat should not be mounted directly above or below the unit. Forced convection
by means of a rack mounted fan-tray may be desirable in situations where space is
restricted, and the ambient air temperature is high.
2.3
Rear rack kit
A kit is available for extra rack support of AHM-64, securing the unit to the rear of a rack cabinet in
environments where vibration or mechanical stress are of concern. The rear rack kit is extendable and can
fit racks between 485mm and 600mm deep.
