E DIMENSIONS AND MOUNTING
It’s important when planning your installation to provide adequate support for the unit’s
weight, and pay particular attention to providing room for both cable access and adequate
ventilation. This section provides physical dimensions and recommendations intended to
inform and guide you when mounting TriCaster systems and related control surfaces.
SECTION 21.10 TRICASTER MINI AND MINI SDI
TriCaster Mini models are highly compact and
portable. Of course, like any complex electronic
device, it is wise to protect it against accidental
damage, including dropping or falling, as well as
static discharges.
The unit weighs 9 lbs. (4.1 kg). Passing HDMI
cables through the removable ‘handle’ provides
extra strain relief and security, but it’s wise to
ensure cabling is routed in the room to avoid
creating a trip-hazard even so – especially in
desktop installations.
Free airflow at TriCaster Mini’s vented side
panels is also important for system cooling.
SECTION 21.11 TRICASTER 460 AND 410
TriCaster 460 and 410 both ship in 2 Rack Unit (RU) enclosures supplied with ‘ears’ designed to permit
mounting in standard 19” rack architecture (Figure 21-84).
The units weigh nearly 25 pounds (>11 KG). A shelf or rear support will distribute the load more evenly if
rack-mounted. Good front and rear access is important for convenience in cabling, access to removable drive
bays (TriCaster 460). In view of the top panel vents on 2RU models, at least one RU should be allowed above
these systems for ventilation and cooling.
