Figure 2-4: Rackmount hole spacing
When rackmounting the 371B, take note of the following: Allow one inch
clearance above and below, and on the left and right sides of the 371B for air
circulation. Allow at least three inches of clearance between the 371B rear panel
and the rack enclosure for adequate cooling air and to provide cable clearance.
The depth of the 371B from behind the rack ears to the rear panel is 480mm(18.9
in). The rack depth must be at least 559mm(22 in) (see Figure 2–5) to meet the
rear clearance requirement.
Figure 2-5: Rackmounting Length and Clearance
The 371B is 312mm(12.25 in) high, a multiple of 45mm(1.75 in) (the standard
rack spacing). If the 371B is installed in a rack with standard hole spacing, and
positioned some multiple of 45mm(1.75 in) from the bottom or top, all holes
should line up and no drilling should be required.
