Unpacking
There are no special unpacking precautions. However, it is recommended that you keep the original packing materials for reuse in the rare event
that service is required. If service is required and the original packing material is not available, ensure that the unit is adequately protected for
shipment (use a strong box of appropriate size, sufficient packing/padding material to prevent load shifting or impact damage) or call QSC’s Technical
Services Group for replacement packing material and a carton.

Mounting
The DCP product is designed to be mounted in a standard 19" (480 mm) equipment rack and requires 3 vertical rack spaces (refer to IEC 60297
for additional rack dimensions and design details). Rack mounting provides the DCP with stability and a convenient means for dressing the cables
connecting to the product. Some rack systems also provide climate control and/or conditioned power.
Rack mount the DCP product by supporting it from underneath while aligning the four front panel mounting holes (in the rack ears) with the threaded
screw holes in the rack rails. Install all four mounting screws and washers and tighten securely. The DCP product comes with rear rack support ears.
Ensure that these rear mounting points are securely fastened to rear rack rails or rack side walls.
