rack mount & ethernet

[jasontaylor]

Actually, there are a couple of ports on the right side, including power and ethernet.  The ethernet port is only used for proprietary expansion purposes, it won't interface with anything other than Conductive Labs own devices.  Anyway, the MRCC is not as wide as a rack space, so the rack ear on the right side has a flange to extend the couple of inches over to the rail, and includes a cut-out to access the power switch and connections there.

To help run the MIDI cables from the front of the rack to the back where I want most of them, I got a blank panel that allows them to pass through and placed it just above my MRCC: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/6...8_XLR.html

thanks for this, helpful.  I'm still wondering how the ears fit and how it all comes together in a traditional rack.
Is there really no diagram, photos, manual or anything to see this?

Also, that MRCC plate you shared is interesting, but again, i'm having a hard time understanding how a simple plate lest you "run the cables from the front to the back".  Just looks like a faceplate to me?  what am i missing?

thnx,
