Installation and service must be performed by 

authorized personnel only.

Non-Decora unit mounting

The 1" high, quarter rack width DVI 201 (non-Decora) 

transmitters and receivers can be placed on a tabletop, mounted 

on a rack shelf, or mounted under a desk or tabletop.  The 

receiver can be mounted on a projector bracket.

Tabletop placement

Affix the four included rubber feet to the bottom of the unit and 

place it in any convenient location.

Rack mounting

UL requirements

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) requirements 

pertain to the installation of the transmitter or receiver into or 

onto a rack (figure 2-1).

1

Elevated operating ambient

 — If the equipment is 

installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the 

operating ambient temperature of the rack environment 

may be greater than room ambient.  Therefore, consider 

installing the equipment in an environment compatible 
with the +122 °F (+50 °C) maximum ambient temperature 

(Tma) specified by Extron.

2

Reduced air flow

 — Installation of the equipment in a rack 

should be such that the amount of air flow required for 

safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

3

Mechanical loading

 — Mounting of the equipment in 

the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not 

achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

4

Circuit overloading

 — Consideration should be given to 

the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and 

the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on 

overcurrent protection and supply wiring.  Appropriate 

consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be 

used when addressing this concern.

5

Reliable earthing (grounding)

 — Reliable earthing 

of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.  

Particular attention should be given to supply connections 

other than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as 

the use of power strips).

(2) 4-40 x 3/16" 
Screws 

Use 2 mounting holes on 
opposite corners.

Rack mounting instructions

For optional rack mounting, mount the transmitter or receiver 

on any of the following rack shelves:
  •  RSF 123  3.5" deep 1U VersaTools

®

 rack shelf kit 

(part #

60-190-20

) (figure 2-1)

  •  RSB 123  3.5" deep 1U VersaTools rack shelf (part #

60-604-20

)

  •  RSU 126  6" deep 1U universal rack shelf kit 

(part #

60-190-10

)

  •  RSB 126  6" deep 1U basic rack shelf (part #

60-604-10

)

  •  RSU 129  9.5" deep 1U universal rack shelf kit 

(part #

60-190-01

) (figure 2-2 on the next page)

  •  RSB 129  9.5" deep 1U basic rack shelf (part #

60-604-01

)

On the non-VersaTools rack shelves, the transmitter or receiver 

unit can be mounted in the front or the rear of the rack.

1

Remove the feet from the bottom of the transmitter or 

receiver unit, if they are installed.

2

Mount the transmitter or receiver unit using two 

4-40 x 3/16" screws in opposite (diagonal) corners to 

secure the transmitter or receiver to the shelf.

3

Install false faceplate(s) or other unit(s) to the rack shelf.
