Mounting the Device

The RUGGEDCOM RX1536 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 dissipation
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 "Dimension Drawings" (Page 34).

Mounting the Device to a Rack

mount adapters at the front or rear of the chassis. Additional adapters are provided
for added stability.
