Appendix B: Rack Mounting

Rack-Mount Brackets
When mounting the V8 Video Controller in an equipment rack, use the included rack mount brackets for secure
mounting and proper ventilation. The V8 requires one rack space. To install the V8 into a standard 19" equipment
rack:
1. Mount the brackets onto the V8 chassis from the front (Figure B-1).
2. Ensure that the brackets are flush with the front of the V8. Install each of the eight screws (included) through
the side mounting flanges into the holes in the sides of the unit as shown in Figure B-2. Hand tighten screws!
Over-tightening could cause damage to the V8 Video Controller.
3. Once the brackets are securely mounted, install the entire assembly into a standard 19" equipment rack from
the front using four rack screws (not included).
