Figure 10: RSG2000 Family 19” Rack Mount Adapters
Figure 11: Rack mount adapter mounting location
The RSG2000 family of products can be rack mounted using the included rack mount adapter
assemblies shown in Figure 10. Secure the rack mount adapter to the front side of the chassis
using the included black PAN head Philips screws in the positions shown in Figure 12. The entire
chassis can then be mounted to a standard 19” rack. An additional two rack mount adapters are
included to optionally secure the rear of the chassis in high-vibration, or seismically active
locations.
Note: Since heat within the RS2000 is channeled to the enclosure, it is recommended that 1 rack-
unit of space (1.75”) be kept unpopulated and free of equipment above each RS2000 series
product to allow for a small amount of convectional airflow. Although forced airflow is not
necessary, any increase in airflow will result in a reduction of ambient temperature that will improve
long-term reliability of all equipment mounted within the rack space.
