Rack Mounting Instruction

5U Rack Mounting
This transceiver can be mounted in a standard 5.5U rack (Please contact your supplier for 5.5U rack sale). The mounting steps are as follows:

  • Step 1: Use included screws to fix two mounting ears on the transceiver, as shown in the figure below:
  • Step 2: Insert the transceiver with mounting ears into a 5.5U rack (up to 10 units can be installed vertically), as shown in the figure below:
  • Step 3: Use screws to fix mounting ears on the rack to complete the mounting, as shown in the figure below:

1U Rack Mounting
This transceiver also can be mounted in a standard 1U rack (up to 4 units can be installed horizontally). The mounting steps are as follows:

  • Step 1: Stack two transceivers on top of each other, then use included screws to fix two 1U rack panels on the transceivers, as shown in the figure below:infobit-iSwitch-SDV-TR-SDVOE-Transceiver-with-Copper-Fiber-Combo-Box-FIG-7
  • Step 2: Fix two 1U rack panels on another two stacked transceivers in the same way, then use screws to fix two 1U rack panels together, as shown in the figure below:infobit-iSwitch-SDV-TR-SDVOE-Transceiver-with-Copper-Fiber-Combo-Box-FIG-8
  • Step 3: Fasten screws between two 1U rack panels, so that four transceivers are mounted in a 1U rack, as shown in the figure below:infobit-iSwitch-SDV-TR-SDVOE-Transceiver-with-Copper-Fiber-Combo-Box-FIG-9
