Mounting the DVX into an Equipment Rack
The DVX occupies three rack units in a standard equipment rack. Install the included
rack mounting brackets using the supplied mounting screws prior to securing the unit
in the rack.
CAUTION: The DVX should not be installed in enclosed spaces. ALWAYS ensure that the
rack enclosure is adequately ventilated. Do not block any ventilation openings. It is
recommended that you leave 1 RU of space above the DVX when you install it in a rack.
DO NOT stand other units directly on top of the DVX when it is rack mounted, as this will
place excessive strain on the mounting brackets.
ALWAYS ensure that the rack enclosure is adequately ventilated. Do not block any
ventilation openings. Sufficient airflow must be achieved (by convection or forced-air
cooling) to satisfy the ventilation requirements of all the items of equipment installed
within the rack.
NOTE: Connect the LAN port to a LAN with DHCP before powering up the device.
