WARNING!
Do not install this product in hazardous
areas where highly combustible or
explosive products are stored or used.
The MP168 Matrix Switcher/Controller Bay is
designed for rack mounting in a standard 19-inch
Electronics Industry Association (EIA) electronic rack
(one rack unit wide). The bay has a height of five rack
units.
For proper ventilation and ease of service, allow a
minimum of 1 meter (3 feet) between both the front and
rear of the rack to any wall. It is the responsibility of
the installer to ensure proper airflow around the bay to
provide adequate ventilation.
Two mounting ears (one for each side) are included
with the MP168 Bay for mounting to a rack assembly
(see Figure 2-1).
Each mounting ear is first attached to the bay with the
three bolts provided with the unit. The bay is then
inserted into the rack assembly and secured with three
bolts (not provided) between the bay and the rack
assembly.
