In Raritan products which require Rack Mounting, please
follow these precautions:
Operation temperature in a closed rack environment may
be greater than room temperature. Do not exceed the
rated maximum ambient temperature of the appliances.
See Specifications.
Ensure sufficient airflow through the rack environment.
Mount equipment in the rack carefully to avoid uneven
mechanical loading.
Connect equipment to the supply circuit carefully to avoid
overloading circuits.
Ground all equipment properly, especially supply
connections, such as power strips (other than direct
connections), to the branch circuit.

Forward Mount
Note: The Raritan device used in the diagrams shown here
are for example purposes only, and may not be a picture of
the KX II device. However, the mounting instructions are
consistent.
The steps correspond to the numbers shown in the front
rackmount diagrams.
1. Secure the cable-support bar to the back end of the side
brackets using two of the included screws.
2. Slide the user station or KVM switch between the side
brackets, with its rear panel facing the cable-support bar,
until its front panel is flush with the “ears” of the side
brackets.
3. Secure the user station or switch to the side brackets
using the remaining included screws (three on each side).
4. Mount the entire assembly in your rack and secure the
side brackets' ears to the rack's front rails with your own
screws, bolts, cage nuts, and so on.
