Modular Amplifiers
The Modular Amplifier Series can be configured for individual module use on a flat surface or using
the "slide-lock" system, ganged together (one or more modules) for installation in a 1RU rack space.
The amplifiers are functionally similar to each other with varying capabilities. For simplicity within this
guide, the term "amplifier" is used except where noted.
DO Assemble the Device
If a single amplifier is to be used on a flat surface, refer to "Placing on a Flat Surface." Otherwise,
continue below for instructions on creating an amplifier assembly that can be placed in a standard
equipment rack. The only tools needed are a #1 or # 2 Phillips screwdriver, and a 1/4" nutdriver.
Gang Amplifiers Together
Perform the following procedure to gang amplifiers together. Refer to the diagrams.
1. Remove the two screws securing the rail to the amplifier.
Remove these
screws.
2. Remove the rail from unit 1 by sliding it off the side of the amplifier.
Unit 1
3. Attach the rail to unit 2 using the three supplied flat head screws.

4. Slide unit 1 into unit 2 assembly.
5. Secure unit 1 to unit 2 assembly with two of the screws removed in step 1.

6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for additional amplifiers.
Configure for Rack Installation
Before an amplifier can be installed in a rack, additional hardware must be installed.
Faceplates
If an amplifier or group of amplifiers are not wide enough to mount in a rack, faceplates can be
assembled to "widen" the amplifier to fit in the rack. Create a faceplate by attaching an extrusion
plate to a quarter-width or half-width rack ear, as shown in the following diagrams. Secure the
extrusion plate to the rack ear using a 1/4" nutdriver and the included nuts.

Attach Rack Ears to Amplifiers
Attach the faceplate bracket(s) or rack ears as required to the amplifier(s). Refer to the following
diagram for details.

NOTE: Faceplates should not be attached to rack ears that are attached to the length of the
amplifier.
DO Install the Device
Once assembled, the amplifier can be mounted into a rack, mounted onto a flat surface, or placed
onto a flat surface.
Mounting into a Rack
Each amplifier occupies 1U of rack space. Using a #1 or #2 Phillips screwdriver, mount the device into
the rack using four mounting screws (not included).
WARNING: To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, observe the
following guidelines:
• When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with
the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
• If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing
the unit in the rack.
CAUTION: To prevent equipment damage, use only the Crestron rack ears provided for this device.
NOTE: Although amplifiers can be installed in a rack without space between them, it is
recommended to add a space between devices to allow ease of access to the rear panel
connections.
