Rackmounting
The B021-000-19 can be mounted in a 1U
system rack. For convenience and flexibility,
mounting hardware is provided with your
B021-000-19 package. The various options are
explained in the sections that follow.
Standard Rackmounting
The standard rackmounting brackets that come
with the B021-000-19 allow the unit to be
installed in standard 1U racks. If the unit can fit
into your rack “as is,” simply slide it into the rack
and screw it securely in place.
Optional Rackmounting
If there is not enough clearance for the unit to
slide into the rack when the rear flanges face
outward, the problem can be resolved with the
following procedure:
1. Locate the two included mounting brackets.
2. Turn the brackets so that the flanges face
inward; then screw them back into the chassis.
Note: Be sure to leave a 13mm gap between
the flange and the rear of the chassis in order
to have enough room to screw the tab to the
flange (referred to in step 4).
Steps 1-3
3. Slide the unit into the rack.
4. Screw the metal tabs to the rear flanges.
5. Secure the unit to the rack with the front
flanges and rear tabs.
Steps 4-5
The B021-000-19 can also be mounted in a 2-
post rack installation using the optional 2-Post
Rackmount Kit (model #: B019-000). The
mounting hardware allows for the consoles to be
opened with the drawer in any position. Heavy-
duty 14-gauge steel provides stability and
prevents console frame from twisting.
