how to install Raritan Rack Mount for KVM Switch

Installing the Raritan Rack Mount for KVM Switch is designed to be straightforward, minimizing downtime and disruption to your working environment. Follow these steps to secure your KVM hardware in a clean, organized rack setup:

  • Step 1 — Prepare the rack: Power down any equipment that will remain in the rack during installation and ensure the rack is stable and properly grounded. Clear the mounting area to provide a safe working space for adding hardware.
  • Step 2 — Attach mounting brackets to the KVM switch: Use the included brackets and screws to affix mounting points to the sides of your KVM switch, following the orientation recommended by the kit and the device manufacturer. Align the brackets with the chassis holes to ensure a snug fit.
  • Step 3 — Align with rack rails: Position the assembled KVM switch with brackets in front of the 19" rack rails. Ensure that the depth and spacing align with your rack’s rail system so that the device sits securely without interfering with adjacent equipment.
  • Step 4 — Secure the assembly: Once properly aligned, guide the device into the rack and fasten the mounting screws into the rails. Tighten securely, taking care not to over-tighten and strip the mounting points.
  • Step 5 — Route and connect cables: Organize power, video, USB, and network cables using the rack-mount guides and ties included with the kit. Maintain clean, orderly cabling to improve airflow and simplify future maintenance. Finally, power on the device and verify basic connectivity and operation before completing a full deployment.

For best results, plan your cable routes before installation, label cables for easy future maintenance, and leave a small clearance around the unit to promote airflow. The Raritan Rack Mount for KVM Switch is designed to integrate with existing rack infrastructure, so you can expand in the future without reworking your entire rack layout. After installation, routinely inspect mounting hardware to ensure screws remain secure and that cables have not shifted under vibration or movement in the rack. This proactive approach helps prevent accidental disconnects and ensures stable operation for critical KVM management tasks.
