Placing the unit
 Mounting the unit on a rack
Use the supplied brackets to mount the unit on an EIA standard rack. Screw the brackets to the unit horizontally.
Notice
• Do not use the brackets for devices other than the XDA-
AMP5400.
• When installing brackets, use the included screws.
• Tighten the screws until the brackets are securely fixed.
Note
Screws for rack mounting are not included.
Precautions for rack mounting
If the unit is mounted together with additional units and/or other
devices in an EIA standard equipment rack, the internal
temperature can rise due to heat generated from the devices,
resulting in impaired performance. If the unit is mounted in a rack,
always observe the following requirements to avoid heat buildup:
• If the unit is mounted in a rack with other devices that
generate a significant amount of heat, such as a power
amplifier, leave more than 1U of space between the unit and
other devices (both above and below). Also, make sure to
either leave any open spaces uncovered or install appropriate
ventilating panels to minimize the possibility of heat buildup.
• To ensure sufficient airflow, leave the rear of the rack open
and position it at least 10 cm from walls or other surfaces.
 Placing the unit without a rack
Affix the supplied non-skid pads at the four corners on the bottom
of the unit, and then place the unit on a shelf or rack.
Note
Allow ventilation space of at least 10 cm (4 in.) on the top, either
side and back of the unit.
