6.1.3. 19" rack mounting
For installation into the 19" rack you can use the 19" rack shelf – single or 19" rack shelf- double for
one or two RipEXes. 19" rack shelf is an optional accessory delivered with/without a power supply.

6.1.4. IP51 mounting
To meet IP51 protection requirements, two conditions must be met:
○ RipEX unit must host the "IP51 protection" option which is indicated by the letter "P" in the order
code (e.g. RipEX-400S
P
).
○ RipEX unit must be physically installed with the connectors facing downward.
6.2. Antenna mounting
The type of antenna best suited for the individual sites of your network depends on the layout of the
network and your requirements for signal level at each site. Proper network planning, including field
signal measurements, should decide antenna types in the whole network. The plan will also determine
what type of mast or pole should be used, where it should be located and where the antenna should
be directed to.
The antenna pole or mast should be chosen with respect to antenna dimensions and weight, to ensure
adequate stability. Follow the antenna manufacturer’s instructions during installation.
The antenna should never be installed close to potential sources of interference, especially electronic
devices like computers or switching power supplies. A typical example of totally wrong placement is
mount a whip antenna directly on top of the box containing all the industrial equipment which is supposed
to communicate via RipEX, including all power supplies.
