Installation
Mounting options
You can install Rack-mount PDUs in one of two ways: using
toolless mounting pegs or the mounting brackets. You mount
the Rack-mount PDUs in the rear of the enclosure, in the
channel directly behind t he rear ver tical moun ting r ails. Be fore
you begin to install the Rack-mount PDUs, choose a location
for them in the enclosure and decide on the mounting method.

Bracketmounting
You can order a rack-mount bracket kit from APC—
AR8116BLK. The brackets attach to the Rack-mount PDU in
two different directions, shown in the figures in step 1.
Consider the orientation of the Rack-mount PDU in the
enclosure before attaching the brackets. A recessed orientation
allows the Rack-mount PDU to be mounted flush with the
enclosure; a raised orientation allows you to route cables
through the channel (see the figures in step 2).
1. Attach two brackets to the rear of the Rack-mount PDU,
using six pan-head screws (provided in the bracket kit)
for each bracket.
– Recessed Orientation
– Raised Orientation
2. Insert one mounting screw (provided with the bracket kit)
in the top and bottom positions in the channel where the
