5. Installation

5.2 Standard Rack Mounting

The NetDirector Console KVM Switch with IP Access is designed for
mounting in a 1U rack system. For convenience, a rack mounting kit is
included with your console KVM switch for quick installation. The various
mounting options are explained in the sections that follow.
Standard Rack Mounting
The standard rack mounting brackets that come attached to the console
KVM switch allow the unit to be installed in a standard 1U rack by a single
individual.
1. Slide out the rear mounting brackets from the console and mount both
brackets (separate from the console) to the inside rear of a standard 1U
rack system using user-supplied screws.
2. Take the console and gently slide it into the two rear-mounted brackets in
the rack and secure the console in place by inserting user-supplied screws.
2-Post Rackmounting
The console KVM switch can also be mounted in a 2-post rack installation
using the optional 2-Post Rack Mount Kit (model #: B019-000).
The mounting hardware allows for the console to be opened with the drawer
in any position. Heavy-duty 14-gauge steel provides stability and prevents
the console frame from twisting. See the B019-000 instructional manual for
detailed mounting instructions.

5.3 Grounding

To prevent damage to your installation it is important that all devices are
properly grounded. Use the included grounding wire to ground the KVM
switch by connecting one end of the wire to the grounding terminal on the
unit, and the other end of the wire to a suitably grounded object.
