Rack mounting kit
The enclosed rack mounting kit allows for various mounting
options:
▪ Single device into 9.5" racks or cabinets or either left or right
into 19" racks or cabinets.
▪ Two devices side-by-side into 19" racks or cabinets.
▪ Single device underneath tables or any other suitable surfaces.
When mounting the device into racks or cabinets, the rack ears
allow for two options:
Flat
Offset
Intended when mounted above d&b
installation amplifiers.

sides of the devices at the top/bottom, front and rear.
2. On one device (don't matter which) attach the dual connector
plates

Rack mounting
NOTICE!
When mounting into 19" equipment racks or cabinets, it is strongly
recommend that you:
▪
Always fix the device at its front AND rear-mounted
rack ears using appropriate rack mounting screws and
U washers, as shown in the graphic opposite.
▪ Alternatively use shelves fixed to the inner sides of the
equipment rack or cabinet.
When specifying a rack or cabinet, be sure to allow extra depth
(150 mm / 6" is usually sufficient) to accommodate the cables and
connectors at the rear of the device.
