Mounting the Device
The RUGGEDCOM RX1400 is designed for maximum mounting and display flexibility.
It can be equipped with brackets that allow it to be installed in a rack, on a DIN rail,
or directly on a panel.
Note
Heat generated by the device is channeled outwards from the enclosure. As such, it
is recommended that 2.5 cm (1 in) of space be maintained on all open sides of the
device to allow for some convectional airflow.
Forced airflow is not required. However, any increase in airflow will result in a
reduction of ambient temperature and improve the long-term reliability of all
equipment mounted in the rack space.
Note

Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail
For DIN rail installations, the RUGGEDCOM RX1400 can be ordered with a DIN rail
adapter preinstalled on the back of the chassis. Use the adapter to mount the device
to a standard 35 mm (1.4 in) IEC/EN 60715 or TS35 DIN rail.
