Mount the sPDS-480ca

Make sure the device is powered OFF before mounting and connecting. 

You can rack mount the PDS-480ca or mount it to a vertical or horizontal surface. 
In either case, sPDS-480 must be installed in a location that allows air to move freely 
around the front and rear of the housing. 

Rack Mount

You can mount the sPDS-480ca on a standard EIA-310-compliant rack. 

1.   Using the included mounting screws, attach one stainless steel handle to each pair 

of threaded holes located on either side of the device, just behind the faceplate. 
(Use two screws for each bracket.) 

2.  Each handle has two holes for rack mounting. Mount the device to a rack using 

four #10 or #12 machine screws and lock washers. 

Surface Mount

A power screwdriver is recommended for surface mounting.

1.  Remove the included rack mount handles from their two attached brackets using a 

Philips screwdriver. Together with the other two included brackets, you will now 
have four brackets for surface mounting.

2.  Using two included screws and lock washers for each bracket, attach two 

mounting brackets to each side of the device. The portion of each bracket with 
four holes should be 

fl

 ush with the bottom of the device.

2. Each of the included mounting brackets mount to the surface using 4 screws each. 

Mount the device to the surface using 16 screws that are suitable for the mounting 
surface.
