Rack Mounting n Mounting in an EIA standard rack If multiple high-power amp units are mounted in a rack with poor ventilation, the heat from the amps will cause the interior of the amp to become very hot, causing the performance of the amps to be impaired. When mounting amps in a rack, you must make provision for ventilation so that the heat can escape. When mounting amps in a rack, please attach ventilation panels above and below the amp to allow air circulation. When doing so, it is necessary
