PRO SERIES WALLMOUNT CABINET

2.4 Optional Accessories

2.4.1 Fan Tray (RM4002A)

This fan tray provides additional airflow in the cabinet. It mounts on the cabinet's inside side panel. The fan tray has a sticker that shows the airflow direction as configured from the factory.

You can reverse the airflow in the fan tray by removing the two front filter covers, loosening the eight screws, removing the fans and reinstalling them in the opposite-flow position, then reinstalling the eight screws and cover.

2.4.2 Filter Tray (RM4003A)

This internally mounted filter tray blocks out dust and damaging air particles.

NOTE: The filter is NOT NEMA rated.

2.4.3 Blanking Panel (RM4004A)

This is a cover to block one of the side panel ventilation access holes. It mounts on the inside of the cabinet.

2.4.4 Extra Vertical Rails (RM4005A)

Using the included four screws and four cage nuts, this set of two additional internally mounted rails enable you to mount two different pieces of equipment that have different mounting requirements.

2.4.5 45° Rear Mounting Rails (RM4006A)

The RM4006A includes two 45° mounting rails. These rails mount on two of the 12 studs welded into the rear door of the wall-mount cabinet. Install rackmount equipment onto these rails. This keeps the space free in the front of the cabinet.

Section 3.2 describes how to attach the rear mounting rails after the cabinet's attached to the wall.

2.4.6 Shelf, 10-inch (RM4007A)

Using the included four screws and four nuts, this small 10-inch shelf mounts in the front of the cabinet to enclose non-rackmountable equipment in the cabinet.

3. Installation

3.1 Wallmounting the Cabinet

Use the template shown in Figure 3-1 to wallmount the cabinet. Follow the steps listed below:

1. Remove the mounting template from the packaging.
2. Select either a left-side or right-side hinge orientation for the front door.
3. Find wall studs and position the template on the wall.
4. Use a level to check the mounting hole positioning on the wall.

5. Mark the primary mounting hole positions on the wall with a pencil.

6. Drill (4) 1/4" x 2" hexagonal screws into the wall through the primary mounting holes, leaving about 1/8" gap between the wall and the hex screw head.

3.2 Connecting the 45° Rails to the Cabinet After It's Mounted on the Wall

1. Line up the mounting holes on the rails with the studs that are welded to the back of the cabinet.
2. Hang one rail from the pair on two studs on one side of the cabinet.
3. Hang the other rail from the pair on two studs on the other side of the cabinet.
4. Install (2) M5 nuts to the studs to secure each 45^ rail to the cabinet.
5. For each pair of rails that you want to install, repeat steps 1–4. You can install up to two pairs of rails.
