Choosing a Suitable Location
The VN-MATRIX is designed to be used either as a free-standing unit or (by using the optional kits
available) to be mounted in a 19 inch equipment rack.
CAUTION
Whichever installation method you choose there are certain environmental
requirements, detailed on page 25, which must be observed in order to ensure safe
and reliable operation.
For rack-mounted applications the criteria detailed on page 26, must also be
observed.
