3. Install 
the 
MultiPower 
Industrial Media Converters 
The MultiPower Industrial Media Converters install virtually anywhere as 
standalone devices in locations with extremely limited space.  Installation 
options include: 
• Velcro 
strips 
•  DIN rail mounting with DIN Rail clips 
•  PowerTray/18 for high density applications 
 
3.1  DIN Rail Mounting 
The MultiPower Industrial Media Converters ship 
from the factory with DIN clips, allowing installation 
on a DIN rail.  Depending on the installation, the 
MultiPower Industrial Media Converters can be 
mounted parallel or perpendicular to the DIN rail.  
Use the supplied screws to attach the DIN clips to 
the MultiPower Industrial Media Converters, and 
then snap the converter to the DIN rail.    
To remove the converter from the DIN rail, use a 
flat-head screwdriver in the slot to gently pry the 
converter from the rail.          
 
 
 
NOTE
 
The DIN clips are designed for use on a DIN-35 rail.
 
3.2 Cascading DC Power 
When installing multiple MultiPower Industrial Media Converters on a DIN 
rail, the end user can connect to one DC input source, and then cascade 
from one DC block to the next, until reaching the maximum current available.
