Avocent RMK89 server rack mount kit 1U 0U

Purpose-built mounting kit

The RMK-89 rack mounting kit is designed specifically to secure the Vertiv Avocent ACS8000 serial console in a server rack. It provides the hardware needed to install the console in environments where rack space is limited. This accessory targets administrators managing serial console deployments in small data centres or network closets.

Dual mounting flexibility

The kit supports two distinct mounting orientations: a standard 1U horizontal rack mount or a 0U vertical mount. This choice lets installers adapt the console to the available rack layout without requiring a separate bracket. The physical dimensions of the console itself determine the exact clearance needed, so verify that the target rack can accommodate the unit in the chosen orientation.

Compatibility and pre-install checks

Confirm that the device to be mounted is the Avocent ACS8000 serial console; the RMK-89 is not designed for other models or vendors. Ensure the rack provides the correct hole pattern and depth for either the 1U or 0U configuration. No tools or additional hardware beyond what is included in the kit are mentioned in the manufacturer data.
