how to install Black Box Rack Mount for KVM Extender, KVM Switch - Black - TAA Compliant

Install this rack mount with attention to safe, orderly cabling and secure mounting in your 19" rack. Follow these practical steps to ensure a clean, reliable setup that preserves performance and accessibility:

• Plan the rack layout to ensure adequate front clearance for cables and any removable kvm modules. Confirm there is at least 1U of vertical space available for the mount and the two extenders.
• Mount the rack rail or the internal cage to the 19" rack chassis, using the appropriate screws and spacers for your rack depth. Ensure rails are level to prevent misalignment when sliding in the extenders.
• Place the two KVM extenders into the 1U mounting area of the rack mount. Align mounting holes and secure each extender with the supplied screws, avoiding overtightening to protect connectors.
• Attach the transformer mounting arms if you plan to use a transformer for power. Secure the transformer to its arms and connect to the power supply as specified by your KVM extenders and overall power architecture.
• Route all signal and power cables with careful labeling and cable management. Leave sufficient slack for maintenance and future swaps, then power up the system and verify all KVM devices are recognized and controllable from the ServSwitch Wizard IP or Wizard IP Plus interfaces.
