Is there any reason NOT to mount the arinc adapter to the side of the AF-4500 (opposite side from the fan)? w/ Psa/velcro attachment.

Hi rv8iator,
I mounted the ARINC adapter to the bottom of the AF4500 using two thin strips of 3M Marine Velcro and it has worked great for the last 100+ hours. I can still slide the unit w/ the ARINC adapter in/out of the bezel. You may want to see/confirm if it's doable w/ it on the side.
I chose this particular Velcro because the adhesive that is used is impressive to say the least. I've used it in the past on a motorcycle to hold a GPS in place which is now going on for about 13 years. It's not cheap but it is good. I found it at West Marine.
