How to use

Position the kit components against the rack rails aligning mounting holes with the rack's U-spacing. Secure the kit to the rack using appropriate rack screws and cage nuts that match the rack's threading and depth.

Verify that the installed equipment is level and firmly attached before routing cables and powering the device.

Usage recommendations

Use compatible rack hardware (screws, cage nuts, washers) rated for the equipment weight and follow rack manufacturer guidelines for load distribution. Inspect mounting points periodically for tightness and signs of corrosion or wear, and avoid exceeding the recommended weight capacity for compact mounting kits.
