Congratulations on your purchase of the MiniRaQ

applications. The

transformers, POE equipment and many other rack mountable products.

System can be mounted on a variety of vertical substrates including
wooden framing studs 16” on center, solid or block concrete walls, and approved
plywood electrical panel or directly onto existing 2 Post racking. Please see detailed
instructions on the following pages.
Mounting hardware is provided for installing into solid wall studs and #12-24
