Rack mounting a Spectrum system including a Spectrum X with internal
storage
Rack your Spectrum X system components in the recommended order.
5 RU (17.8 cm [7 in.]) of vertical rack space are required. This dimension includes 1 RU (4.45 cm
[1.75 in.]) of clearance above the SystemManager Keyboard/Manager Tray. The SystemManager
Keyboard/Monitor Tray is placed 71.12 cm (28.0 in.) off the floor. This tabletop height is ideal for using the
SystemManager while seated or standing.
If the depth of your rack is less than 30 in. from front to rear between the rack vertical rails, Harmonic
recommends that before racking you trial fit the Spectrum X in your rack to verify that there will be no
interference at the rear when the system chassis is slid fully into the rails.
1. Install the Spectrum X in the equipment rack. Follow the instructions included with the rack mounting
kit.
