Vertiv AVOCENT Quick Installation Manual

AVOCENT® MATRIX SWITCHING
SYSTEM MOUNTING BRACKET
Quick Installation Guide
The following instructions help you
install your Vertiv™ Avocent® Matrix
Switching System mounting bracket.
Should you require further assistance,
please contact Vertiv Technical Support.
Because mounting surfaces vary, the
Matrix switch mounting bracket does not
include mounting anchors. For ease of
description, it is assumed that wood
screws are being used. Depending on
the type of mounting surface, a different
type of anchor may be needed to secure
the mounting bracket.
ITEMS NEEDED:
• One mounting bracket
• Four #8 screws, minimum 3/4
inch long
• 1/16-inch drill bit
1. Preparing the mounting
location
Determine the best position for your
Matrix receiver. The bracket may be
mounted on a vertical or horizontal
surface with an appropriate
substrate.
CAUTION: For safe installation,
mount this bracket to a type of
material that can easily sustain the
weight of the Matrix receiver and
attached cables. Please use caution
in determining which screws are most
suitable to use, taking into account
the type of material to which the
bracket will be mounted.
NOTE: If you are mounting the
bracket on a vertical surface, orient
it so that the front of the Matrix
receiver faces the ceiling rather than
the ground.
Mark the holes on the surface where
the bracket is to be mounted. Use
the holes on the outer edge for
maximum strength. Drill four guide
holes at the marked positions.
2. Attaching the bracket
Hold the bracket in place and insert
one screw into each of the four
guide holes. Tighten the screws.

cabling.
