2.3.1 Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail
Forced airflow is not required. However, any increase in airflow will result in a
reduction of ambient temperature and improve the long-term reliability of all
equipment mounted in the rack space.
Note
For detailed dimensions of the device with either DIN rail or panel hardware installed,
refer to
"Dimension Drawings (Page 19)"
