Mounting and Removing
Your Fiber Blocks

Chapter Summary

You can horizontally or vertically mount SynchLink blocks on a
standard 35mm DIN rail.
· To install the blocks, snap them on the DIN rail by hand.
· To remove components from the DIN rail, use a flat-blade
screwdriver.
An example of the DIN-rail mounted SynchLink hub is shown in
Figure 7.2.
When properly installed, SynchLink blocks are
ATTENTION
grounded through the DIN rail to chassis ground.
Use zinc-plated, yellow-chromated steel DIN rail to
!
assure proper grounding. Using other DIN rail
materials (e.g. aluminum, plastic, etc.) which can
corrode, oxidize, or are poor conductors can result
in improper or intermittent platform grounding.
Mount blocks only on zinc-plated, yellow-chromated
steel DIN rail. Refer to the blocks' installation
instructions for more information.
