Mounting Rack Ears

The MMR-8 is a self-contained eight channel digital playback and recording device designed to be
mounted in a standard 19" (48.26 cm) IEC equipment rack in either the mix studio or a dedicated machine
room in a professional audio recording facility. As such, each MMR-8 is housed in a steel chassis 19-
inches (48.26 cm) wide by 17 ¼ inches (43.81 cm) deep by 7-inches (17.78 cm) tall. Each MMR-8
requires 5U (7-inches or 17.78 cm) of rack space.
Integral rack ears are provided with the chassis. If the unit is not rack-mounted, the rack ears do not need
to be installed onto the MMR-8 chassis. For rack mounting, install one rack ear to the front of each side of
the MMR-8 (three Phillips screws per side are supplied for fastening the rack ears to the chassis).
