Mounting the Device
The RUGGEDCOM RSG909R is designed for maximum mounting and display flexibility. It can be equipped with
adapters that allow it to be installed on a 35 mm (1.4 in) DIN rail or affixed to a panel.
IMPORTANT!
Heat generated by the device is channeled outwards from the enclosure. As such, it is recommended
that 2.5 cm (1 in) of space be maintained on all open sides of the device to allow for some
convectional airflow.
Forced airflow is not required. However, any increase in airflow will result in a reduction of ambient
temperature and improve the long-term reliability of all equipment mounted in the rack space.
NOTE
For detailed dimensions of the device with either DIN rail or panel hardware installed, refer to
Section5.7, “Dimension Drawings”.

Section2.4.1
Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail
For DIN rail installations, the RSG909R is equipped with a DIN rail bracket pre-installed on the back of the chassis.
The bracket allows the device to be slid or clipped onto a standard 35 mm (1.4 in) DIN rail.
