RE3-ACC-RMK2 Rack
mount kit for two RE3
receivers

▪ Equips two RE3 receivers for rack mounting

▪ Provides front mounting of antennas or cables

▪ Coupling plates firmly secure receivers together

▪ Two high-quality RG-58 50 Ω front-mount cables

▪ Includes rack ears, coupling plates, cables,

mounting screws, and hole plugs

The RMK2 kit contains all necessary items to couple
and mount two RE3-RX receivers into a 19” rack. The
bridging plates firmly couple two receivers together
ensuring the receivers are held securely in a rack. The
rack ears easily mount to the receiver’s threaded
mounting holes using the provided screws. The
threaded front flange mount ends of the antenna
cables mount into the rack ears and securely mount
either the stock receiver ½ wave antennas, or coax
extension cables for remote antenna applications.

3. While aligning the flat (A) portion of the threaded
connector barrel with the flat portion of the rack ear
front flange opening, slide the threaded barrel
through the opening until it is fully extended through
the rack ear flange.

1. On a flat surface, lay out two RE3 receivers side-by­side as they will appear in the rack.

The top and bottom of the receivers contain the same
items that will be removed and replaced with coupling
plates.

Locate the skid pads on the top and bottom of each

2.
receiver.

Notice that the right-side skid pad of the left-hand
receiver is adjacent to the left-side skid pad of the right­hand receiver.

3.

Remove and save the eight machine screws and set
aside the four skid pads from the top and bottom
coupling sites.

Remember when removing the screws to set them aside.
They will be reused when attaching the coupling plates.

4. Locate and place one of the coupling plates where
the two adjacent skid pads had been on the top.

5. Using four of the screws removed previously, attach
the coupling plate by tightening the screws securely.

6. Turn the units over and repeat this step on the
opposite side.

When all eight screws are tight, the receivers will be
securely coupled together.

7. Locate the rack ears and supplied screws.

Ears will mount on either side of the receiver as they are
the same orientation.

8. Attach the rack ears to the receiver chassis by using
two screws per ear.

The rack ear mounting holes will line up with the pre­tapped holes in the receiver side.

9. Tighten all four screws securely.

connector barrel.

Ensure the nut is tightened securely to the connector
barrel.

7. Repeat steps 4-6 for the other cable and rack ear.

8. Connect the other ends of the antenna cables into
antenna A and antenna B inputs of an antenna
distribution device.

Antenna distribution device options: RE3-ACC-AASP
active antenna splitter or the RE3-ACC-PASP passive
antenna splitter.
