NTI VIDMUX VGA Video-Only Switch
RACK-MOUNTING
This NTI switch was designed to be mounted to a rack or to set on a desktop. It includes rackmount ears to make attachment to a
rack easy, and rubber feet to be applied to the bottom of the case if it will instead sit on a flat surface. If this will sit on a flat
surface, simply apply the rubber feet to the bottom of the case in each of the 4 corners.
To Mount to a Rack
1. Attach the ears to the switch using the 6-32x3/16" flat Phillips-head screws (6) provided as shown in the illustration below.
The holes in the ears should line up with pre-threaded holes in the sides of the NTI switch. Tighten the screws securely.

2. Install 4 captive nuts (not provided) to the rack in locations that line up with the holes in the mounting ear on the NTI switch.
3. Secure the NTI switch to the rack using four screws (typically #10-32 x ¾”- not provided). Each screw should be of sufficient
length to go completely through the NTI mounting ear, rack frame and fully engage all threads in the captive nut. Be sure to
tighten all mounting screws securely.
4. Attach all cables securely to the switch and where necessary supply adequate means of strain relief for cables.
