Equipment Mounting

This section provides procedures for mounting the FOXBOX transmitter and receiver.

Mounting the Transmitter or Receiver

ATTENTION:
Any of the 1-inch high, quarter-rack width units can be placed on a tabletop, mounted on
a rack shelf, or mounted under or through a desk or other furniture. The receiver can be
mounted to a projector bracket.

Tabletop Use

Affix the included rubber feet to the bottom of the unit and place it in any convenient
location.

Mounting kits

Mount the unit using any optional compatible mounting kit listed on the Extron website,
in accordance with the directions included with the kit. For rack mounting, see "UL Rack-
Mounting Guidelines."

UL Rack-Mounting Guidelines

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) requirements pertain to the installation of the
unit into a rack.
•
•
•
•
•
Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only.
Elevated operating ambient temperature — If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater
than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in an environment
compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (TMA = +122 °F, +50 °C) specified
by Extron.
Reduced air flow — Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the
amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical loading — Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a
hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit overloading — Consideration should be given to the connection of the
equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have
on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable earthing (grounding) — Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment
should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other
than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as use of power strips).
