Section 2 Installation

2.1 Rack Installation

The OmniHub-PLAY is designed to be mounted in a standard 19” rack. It takes 1RU of

rack space. To install it into a rack, please use the following steps:

Determine the desired position in the rack for the OmniHub-PLAY. Make sure

that the air intake on the front of the unit and the exhausts on the back of the unit

will not be blocked.

Install the brackets at desired position if there is no supporting plate in the rack.

Insert the rack mount clips into place over the mounting holes in the rack.

Slide the OmniHub-PLAY into the position in the rack.

Secure the chassis to the rack by installing the four supplied screws through the

front mounting holes and tightening.
