Wireless Mic Receiver (usually snap-in or attached with screws, depending on the
manufacturer). Typically, you’ll rack mount your Wireless Receiver just below the
Power Module or Mixer, depending on the spread and extension of the antennae.
Some facilities prefer putting their Wireless Receiver on top of their rack for
improved reception, especially if the rack is located in a different room or closet.
If you choose this method of placement, your Wireless Mic Receiver will not be
mounted in your rack, it will be set on top of the rack after everything else is
secured and the rack is upright.
For improved security and a professional look, we always recommend a rack-

fere with the mounting of security doors. In this case, you’ll want to make sure
the amp is not all the way at the bottom of the rack.
Filler Panels
If you’ve purchased , now is the time to position them. Filler panels
are 1 to 4 rack-space ventilated panels which fill in whatever spaces are left open
after the components are positioned. These panels give a finished ‘no holes’ look to
your sound system. Your AV Now system designer will have calculated how many
filler panels will be needed to fill in all the open space in the front of the rack.
