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).
Table or wall mounting
The table/wall mounting brackets extend approximately 1/4" (6.4 mm) above the
top surface of the switcher enclosure. This design allows for an air space between
the enclosure and the surface to which it is mounted. Table or wall mount the
switcher as follows:
1. Attach the table/wall mounting brackets to the switcher with the eight
provided #8 machine screws (figure 2-1).
2. Hold the switcher with the attached brackets against the underside of the
table or other furniture, or against the wall. Mark the location of the screw
holes of the bracket on the mounting surface.
3. Drill 3/32" (2 mm) diameter pilot holes, 1/4" (6.4 mm) deep in the mounting
surface at the marked screw locations.
4. Insert #8 wood screws into the four pilot holes. Tighten each screw into the
mounting surface until just less than 1/4" of the screw’s head protrudes.
5. Align the mounting screws with the slots in the brackets and place the
switcher against the surface, with the screws through the bracket slots.
6. Slide the switcher slightly forward or back, then tighten all four screws to
secure the switcher in place.
Through-desk mounting
Mount the switcher through a desk or podium as follows:
1. Attach the supplied mounting brackets to the switcher with the machine
screws provided (figure 2-1).
2. Cut the proper sized hole in the mounting surface.
3. Hold the switcher with the attached brackets against the underside of the
table or other furniture. Mark the location of the screw holes of the bracket on
the mounting surface.
4. Drill 3/32" (2 mm) diameter pilot holes, 1/4" (6.3 mm) deep in the mounting
surface at the marked screw locations.
5. Insert four #8 wood screws through the bracket and into the four pilot holes.
Tighten all four screws to secure the switcher in place.
