Mounting Options for Modules (Rack Trays and Mounting Brackets)
Caution: To prevent overheating, avoid placing high heat producing equipment directly above or below the
modules. We recommend allowing plenty of clearance above the vent holes on top of the modules. Do not
place anything directly on top of the modules that would restrict airflow through the vent holes on top.
The Multi-Format TX, HDMI TX, and HDMI RX are classified as V Style modules, which have optional V Style
mounting hardware. These versatile mounting options include rack trays and mounting brackets for desktops, under
desks, on walls, and on poles. For details on V Style Mounting Kit options, see www.amx.com.
Important: When mounting under a surface, the module should be mounted upright and lowered in the slots
to provide an airflow gap between the surface and the vent holes. If not using V Style brackets, be sure to
leave a gap between the top of the unit and the surface for heat to escape.
Mounting Options for Wallplates
Wallplate TX – The holes in the Wallplate TX’s mounting bracket are designed to accommodate a variety of
double-gang back boxes using two or four screws. Two types of screws are provided: standard and metric. Be sure
to orient the mounting bracket as shown in FIG. 21.
Decor Wallplate TX – The Decor Wallplate TX mounts in a standard US double-gang back box. Standard decor style
cover plates are customer provided to allow matching the individual decor of an environment or matching other standard
decor covers in a room/area.
Important: Be sure to measure the back box and any other components used to mount the Decor Wallplate
TX prior to installation/construction to ensure the unit fits (e.g., some mud rings do not work unless their
corners are modified).
