Stacking and Rack Mounting
The CS1308 / CS1316 can be stacked on a desktop or rack mounted in 1U of
rack space. The procedures are described in the following sections.
Note:
1. Allow at least 5.1 cm on each side for adequate ventilation and
12.7 cm at the rear for power cord and cable clearance.
2. The rack mount kit does not include cage nuts. If you need additional
screws or cage nuts, contact your rack dealer.
3. For instructional purposes, the CS1316 is pictured in the diagrams
that follow. However, the CS1308 is the same as the CS1316, except
that it has 8 KVM ports instead of 16.
Stacking
The CS1308 / CS1316 can be placed on any level surface that can safely
support its weight and the weight of the attached cables. Ensure that the surface
is clean and free of materials that can block the exhaust vents or otherwise
interfere with normal operation of the KVM switch. Peel the protective backing
off of the foot pads, and affix them to the bottom panel of the CS1308 / CS1316
at the corners, as shown in the diagram below.
