The CNRACKX-DP is housed in a black enclosure with silk-screened labels on the 
front panel. On the front panel is a single RS-232 computer port, system status light-
emitting diodes (LEDs), two reset buttons, a reverse LCD display with menu 
function and selection buttons, and a row of slot status LED indicators.  

The rear panel provides 13 open CNX expansion card slots and the two CNXCPUs. 
On each CNXCPU, there are two Cresnet connectors, a single RS-232 computer 
port, and two LEDs. The LAN/DPA ports are available when optional CNXENET+ 
Ethernet Expansion Cards are installed into the CNXCPUs.

Ten blank faceplates and mounting screws are included. These faceplates are 
installed over the empty expansion slots and additional faceplates are available 
through Crestron’s Customer Support. Four rubber feet (supplied) can be affixed to 
the bottom of the CNRACKX-DP to provide stability and to prevent slippage when 
mounted on a flat surface. The unit may also be rack mounted by attaching metal 
flanges, known as ears (also supplied), to each end.  

There is only one CNRACKX-DP port, labeled COMPUTER, on the front panel. 
The other ports on the rear are part of the CNXCPUs.
