IMPORTANT!
Heat generated by the device is channeled outwards from the enclosure. As such, it is recommended
that 2.5 cm (1 in) of space be maintained on all open sides of the device to allow for some
convectional airflow.
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 rack, DIN rail or panel hardware installed, refer to
Chapter 5, Dimension Drawings .

Section 2.4.1
Mounting the Device to a Rack
For rack mount installations, the RSG2488 can be ordered with rack mount adapters pre-installed at the front and
rear of the chassis. Additional adapters are provided to further secure the device in high-vibration or seismically
active locations.
To secure the device to a standard 48 cm (19 in) rack, do the following:
1. Make sure the front and rear rack mount adapters are installed on the both sides of the chassis.
NOTE
The chassis features multiple mounting holes, allowing the rack mount adapters to be installed up
to 25 mm (1 in) from the face of the device.

supply side of the device first. Reverse the orientation to have the power supplies, management ports and
LEDs accessible from the front.
3. Secure the adapters to the rack using the supplied hardware.
