Mounting the MMX 32 VGA MTP
The MMX 32 VGA MTP can be set on a table, mounted on a rack shelf, or mounted under a
desk, podium, or tabletop.
Tabletop Use
Four self-adhesive rubber feet are included with the switcher. For tabletop use, attach one
foot at each corner of the bottom of the unit, and place the unit in the desired location.
UL Requirements for Rack Mounted Devices
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) requirements pertain to the safe installation of
the MMX in a rack.
1. Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the equipment is installed in a closed
or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment
may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the equipment in an
environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature
(Tma = +122 °F, +50 °C) specified by Extron.
2. Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in a rack so that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
3. Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that a hazardous condition
is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
4. Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and consider the
effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when
addressing this concern.
5. Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted
equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections
to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
