Mounting Arm
The rear panel of the Micronet SmarTab 8 cradle provides the mechanical infrastructure for a RAM

The RAM
®
mounting arm is a flexible, rotating, arm-based mount that provides a wide range of fixed in-
cabin positions for maximum comfort and visibility. The mounting arm screw positions on the cradle
rear panel are compatible with Amp's standard mounting-arm products.
Mounting Inserts Location and Dimensions
There are two M5 thread mounting
found on the rear panel of the Micronet SmarTab
8 cradle. The distance between the PEM screw inserts is 48.50mm.
Micronet provides two screws with the RAM
