Mounting the Device
The RUGGEDCOM RSG2100F is designed for maximum mounting and display
flexibility. It can be equipped with connectors that allow it to be installed in a 48 cm
(19 in) rack, 35 mm (1.4 in) DIN rail, or directly on a panel.
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
2.4.1
Mounting the Device to a Rack
The RUGGEDCOM RSG2100F can be secured to a standard 48 cm (19 in) rack using
separately purchased rack mount adapters. The adapters can be installed at the front
or rear of the chassis.
Each adapter kit includes four adapters.
Vibration hazard – risk of damage to the device
In high-vibration or seismically active locations, always install four rack mount
adapters (two at the front of the chassis and two at the rear).
Electrical/mechanical hazard – risk of damage to the device
Before installing the device in a rack, make sure of the following:

NOTICE
When installing the device in a closed or multi-device rack, be aware the
operating ambient temperature of the rack may be higher than the ambient
temperature of the room. Make sure the rack is installed in a suitable
environment that can withstand the maximum ambient temperature generated
by the rack.
Make sure each device in the rack is separated by at least one rack-unit of space,
or 44 mm (1.75 in), to promote 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.
