Setting up a Multiservices Platform Series Device
Installing Square Hole to Round Hole Adapters (Optional)
The quick release mounting system on the Multiservices Platform Series 2-RU model is designed for
racks with square holes. If you want to use this system with a round hole rack or a threaded hole rack
(with thread size M5 or larger), you can do so by using the square hole to round hole adapter set. This
set includes four brackets, which attach to the front and rear of the right and left rack rails and provide
square holes to which you can attach the quick release rack rails.
To install the square hole to round hole adapters, see
and perform the procedure that follows.
This figure shows how the brackets and rails attach to the left side of a rack.
