UL/Safety Requirements
The Underwriters Laboratories (UL) requirements listed below pertain to the safe
installation and operation of a MediaLink Switcher.
1. Do not use the switcher near water.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to
rain or moisture.
2. Clean the switcher only with a dry cloth.
3. Do not install the switcher near any heat source, such as a radiator, heat
register, stove, or another apparatus (including amplifiers) that produces heat.
4. Unplug the switcher during lightning storms or when it will be unused for
long periods.
Mounting the Switcher
Tabletop use
Each MLS switcher comes with rack mounting brackets and rubber feet. For table-
top use, attach a self-adhesive rubber foot to each corner of the bottom of the unit.
Rack mounting
For rack mounting, do not install the rubber feet. If you need to change the settings
of the -6dB internal jumpers (to apply a -6dB attenuation to audio ouput), and set
the jumpers before rack mounting the switcher. See
page 2-12 for details on the jumpers.
Attach the provided rack mounting brackets
to the switcher with machine screws, as
shown at right, then fasten the
switcher to the rack using the
supplied machine screws.
For the models with
audio amplification
(MLS 506MA/SA) we
recommend allowing one
rack unit of space
(1.75”/4.5 cm) above and
below the switcher for air
circulation to prevent
overheating. There is no
cooling fan in the MLS
switcher.
