Installing DNP3 I/O Modules in a Rack
Rack Spacing
When mounting multiple DNP3 I/O modules in a rack, or when mounting DNP3 I/O modules in a rack
with other equipment , verify that there is at least one rack unit (RU) of space above and below the
DNP03 I/O module to allow for cooling air flow and cable routing (1 RU = 1.75 inches or 44.5 mm).
Required Clearances
The exterior dimensions of the DNP3 I/O module are:
Allow about 14 inches (356 mm) of total cabinet depth, to provide clearance for cables and maintenance
access.
Rack Mounting Procedure
To mount the DNP3 I/O module in a rack:
1. Determine the location of the DNP3 I/O module in a 19-inch mounting rack.
2. Install, but do not tighten the top two mounting screws.
Note Install the DNP3 I/O module with the LEDs visible from the front of the rack.
3. Slide the DNP3 I/O module over the top mounting screws and drop down into position.
4. Insert the bottom mounting screws.
