i530 WALL & DIN RAIL MOUNTING
BRACKET FOR i4xx CARD CAGE PRODUCT LIST > i530 >
Overview
The i530 package enables one to attach a 4, 8, 12, or 16 slot i4xx Card Cage to
a 35mm DIN rail or to a flat wall.
The i530 packaged includes two i4xx DIN Rail Mounting Brackets and
eight 4-40 flat head 0.250" bolts that can affix
the brackets to pre-thread holes in the i4xx Card Cage back, bottom or top.
What's In The Box
The #iNet-530 package includes 2 brackets and
eight 4-40 flat head 0.250" bolts, as pictured below.
DIN Rail or Wall Mounting
If the brackets are mounted with the DIN Rail clip facing outward, then they are used to attach the card cage to a DIN rail.
Alternatively, one can mount the brackets with the DIN clips facing toward the card cage, and then use the bracket to attach
the card cage to a wall. This is helpful if you do not have access to both sides of the wall.
On the other hand, if you do have access to both sides of the wall, then consider bolting
the i40x directly to the wall without brackets, as
described here.

i530 Brackets Support All i4xx Card Cages
The i530 brackets support card cages of any width. The illustration below shows
how the brackets attach to the outter areas of a card cage that is larger than 4 slots, for example.
i530 Installation
To install the i530 brackets; bolt them to the top, bottom or back of an i4xx Card Cage using
4-40 flat head 0.250" bolts included
with the i530 package.
If one is affixing to a DIN rail, then 8-32 bolts on the bracket are used to grip the DIN.
If the 8-32 DIN tabs are directed outwards, then the brackets are used to attach to a DIN rail. Alternatively, one can
position these tabs inward and then use the bracket to affix the card cage to a flat wall. The illustration
below shows the 4-40 bolts and the 8-32 DIN tab.
Eight 4-40 flat head bolts are included with the i530 package, yet one typically only uses six.
Mounting i4xx Card Cage in 19" Rack
One can easily mount the i4xx Card Cage into a
19" Rack by bolting the bottom
surface of the card cage to a rack shelf.
These shelves are available from 3rd parties.
