Installing The MX-2424
Multiple units can be mounted on top of each other when forced air rack ventilation is provided.
a one inch clearance is required on both sides of the MX-2424 (even in single-unit installations).
In facilities with raised computer-room style flooring, a ventilation opening in the floor is recommended. In no case should the internal rack temperature ever exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit
(43 degrees Centigrade) during operation (as measured at the rear of any MX-2424 in the system).
When mounting MX-2424's on top of each other in a rack
the feet may be removed by unscrewing them.
To replace the feet:
1. Insert the fastener into the foot
2. Snap the fastener & foot back into the hole in the bottom of the MX-2424 chassis
3. Snap the screw into the fastener's hole
CONNECTING THE MX-2424
Following is a listing/description of cables required to make connections to the MX-2424. Please note that while
some cables look similar in appearance they may be wired/constructed very differently. Always use the correct
cable!
[53] Analog Multi-Track Connections
