The blank panel is designed to facilitate the mounting of a 9.5" rack processor in a standard 19" rack. Here's how it works:
Compatibility: The blank panel is compatible with 9.5" rack processors, allowing them to be securely mounted within a 19" rack enclosure.
Mounting Flexibility: The blank panel can be mounted either to the left or right of the 9.5" processor's front panel. This flexibility enables users to create a cohesive 19" front panel arrangement, ensuring a neat and organized appearance within the rack.
Creating a 19" Front Panel: By attaching the blank panel to either side of the 9.5" processor's front panel, users effectively extend the width to fit the standard 19" rack spacing. This allows the processor to seamlessly integrate into the rack alongside other standard-width equipment.
Mounting Kit Requirement: It's worth noting that a mounting kit (60898582) is required in conjunction with the blank panel to securely install the 9.5" rack processor within the 19" rack enclosure. The mounting kit ensures proper alignment and stability of the equipment within the rack.
Overall, the blank panel provides a simple yet effective solution for adapting 9.5" rack processors for use in standard 19" rack enclosures. With its versatile mounting options and compatibility with mounting kits, it offers users the flexibility to customize their rack setups to suit their specific needs and preferences.
