How to install ATEN Rack Mount for KVM Switch
Follow these practical steps to install the ATEN rack mount kit for your LCD KVM Switch/Console in a standard 19" rack. Ensure you have the correct kit for your model and all necessary tools before you begin. Prior to installation, power down connected devices and follow your facility’s safety and grounding procedures. The steps below describe a typical installation workflow, suitable for most ATEN LCD KVM Switch/Console systems.
- Step 1 — Prepare and align: Confirm the kit contents and verify compatibility with your ATEN LCD KVM Switch/Console model. Clear the rack area and power off all equipment to prevent unintended activity. Lay out the mounting rails and brackets, and align them with the rack posts at the desired height to accommodate front-panel access and cable routing.
- Step 2 — Attach rails to the rack: Secure the rails to the rack posts using the supplied screws and brackets. Ensure rails are level and square to the rack to prevent binding of the KVM console during operation. If the kit provides adjustable rails, adjust to the appropriate depth to fit your enclosure.
- Step 3 — Mount the KVM Switch/Console: With an assistant, slide the LCD KVM Switch/Console onto the mounted rails. Align mounting holes on the device with the corresponding holes on the rails, then loosely thread screws to allow final alignment adjustments before fully tightening.
- Step 4 — secure and tidy cables: Once the KVM unit is seated, tighten all screws to secure the assembly. Route power, video, USB, and keyboard/mouse cables neatly along the rails and along cable management channels if provided. Use cable ties or Velcro straps to maintain a clean, organized pathway that supports good airflow and easy maintenance.
- Step 5 — test and verify: Restore power and perform a basic functional test of the KVM Switch/Console. Verify that video and peripheral connections are working correctly, and confirm that the front panel can be accessed easily without interference from cabling. Finally, replace any covers or panels and record the installation for future reference.
