Wall or Cabinet The two metal brackets included with NPort Server Lite can be used to attach the server to a wall, or the inside of a cabinet. Using three screws per bracket, first attach the brackets to the bottom of the server (Fig. 2-1a). Next, use two screws per bracket to attach the server to a wall or cabinet (Fig. 2-1b). Figure 2-1a.

DIN Rail NPort Server Lite can also be mounted on a standard 35-mm DIN Rail. First, use two screws to attach each of the two DIN Rail brackets to the metal attachment plates (Figs. 2-2a, b). Figure 2-2a. DIN Rail Mounting Brackets—Inner Placement Figure 2-2b. DIN Rail Mounting Brackets—Outer Placement Since the screw heads are beveled, and the holes in the plate are countersunk, the tops of the screws will be flush with the metal plates. This allows the metal plates (now
