Mounting procedure for two receivers
To mount two receivers side by side, you will require 2RU (3.5 inches, 89 mm) of vertical rack space and a
Real Freedom Dual Receiver Rack Mount Kit (BRK-0006-00).

1 Bracket Fixing 2U, 2 Joining Blocks, 3 Bracket Fixing 2U, 4 Block Joining Rear.
1. Attach a
Bracket Fixing 2U
to the left-hand side of one receiver and to the right-hand side of the other
receiver using four M5 x 12 Phillips screws.
2. Attach a
Joining Block
the other side of each receiver using two M5 x 25 Philips screws.
You should attach the
Joining Block
in the ‘top’ position on one receiver and in the ‘bottom’ position on
the other receiver.
3. Attach a
Block Joining Rear Tapped
to one receiver and a
Block Joining Rear CSK
to the other receiver
using two M3 x 12 Philips screws.
You should attach these blocks on the same sides of the receivers as the joining blocks.
4. Position the receivers together and secure the front and rear joining blocks.
Connect the front joining blocks using two M5 x 60 Phillips screws (one inserted through the top block,
and the other inserted through the bottom block).
Connect the two rear joining blocks using an M5 x 25 Philips screw.
5. Install the two receivers at the desired location in the equipment rack and secure to the vertical uprights
using four rack screws.
Power connections
The receiver can be powered from an AC or DC supply. Both supplies may be connected at the same time
although this configuration is not recommended since a seamless handover between supplies cannot be
guaranteed.
WARNING:
Both AC and DC power supply cables must be disconnected before servicing.
If the power is ‘dirty’, it is recommended that you find a ‘clean’ power source. Use a surge protector or power
strip to mitigate damage to the equipment in the event of a power surge.
