How to Identify Your Apple TV Model and Choose the Right 19" Rack Mount
Do you want to integrate your Apple TV into a 19-inch rack, but don't know which rack module to choose? Don't panic — this guide explains how to identify your model in 2 minutes and find the right mount.
🔍 Step 1 — Find your Apple TV's model number
The model number can be found in two places:
On the Apple TV itself: turn the device over and read the number on the bottom (it starts with "A" followed by 4 digits, e.g., A2843).
In the settings: go to Settings → General → About, the model will be displayed directly on the screen.
📋 Step 2 — Identify your model
Use this table to identify your Apple TV:
