Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Radial J-Rak 8. The J-Rak 8
is a 19” rack adapter that has been designed to work with products like the
Radial JDI, Radial J48 and the many other Radial products that employ the same
bookend designed enclosure. Although the J-Rak 8 is a straightforward device,
we invite you to take a few moments to read through this manual and
familiarize yourself with this versatile product. Should you have any
questions or comments, please feel free to contact us by sending an email to
info@radialeng.com or browse our web site at

applications.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Radial J-Rak 8 requires two rack spaces (3 ½”) and allows up to eight Radial products to be rack-mounted in a standard 19” rack. The J-Rak 8 is designed to allow touring companies to make better use of their DI box inventory by allowing stand-alone units to be converted to rack mounted DIs for applications like keyboards. A wide range of Radial interface and mic- splitter products are compatible with the J-Rak 8 making it possible to quickly create a custom rack. A strong advantage for the J-Rak 8 is that you get to choose what connectors face front. Before you start loading up DIs take a minute to consider how you will connect to them. Depending on your situation you may prefer to have the inputs face front. This would be best for studio applications where instruments are often connected and disconnected during a session.
If you’re using the J-Rak 8 in a concert touring situation then you may want the outputs to face front for quick connection to a microphone snake. The J-Rak 8 lets you choose the orientation for each slot so you may want to think about which arrangement is best for your setup.
As with all Radial products, the J-Rak 8 features heavy-duty construction and a baked enamel finish for years of trouble-free performance. The J-Rak is also supported by the Radial 3-year transferable warranty to protect against manufacturing defects.
SETTING UP THE J•RAK 8
Step One: Remove the Shell
To begin, remove the protective outer ‘book-end’ shell from the Radial product
by unscrewing the four (4) hex #6/32 screws. A hex allen key is provided for
these screws. Do not discard the screws or shells. Store them in a safe place
in case you want to restore the product to its original configuration.
Step Two: Load into Slot
With the outer shell removed, slide the enclosure into the front of the J-Rak
8 slot. Ensure the open side is facing up as pictured below.
Step Three: Rear Screws
Once the enclosure is seated in the J-Rak 8 locate the two screw holes for the
slot on the top near the rear edge. Sixteen Philips head screws are provided
to secure enclosures in place. Insert two screws per slot. Repeat the
procedure for the other slots. The J-Rak 8 is now ready to mount in your 19”
rack.
