Installation
Selecting a site for the equipment
As it is any electric device, you should place the equipment where it will
not be subjected to extreme temperatures, humidity, or electromagnetic
interference. Specifically, the site you select should meet the following
requirements:
- The ambient temperature should be between 0 to 40 degrees Celsius
(32 to 104 degrees Fahrenheit).
- The relative humidity should be less than 90 percent, non-condensing.
- Surrounding electrical devices should not exceed the electromagnetic
field (RFC) standards for IEC 801-3, Level 2 (3V/M) field strength.
- Make sure that the equipment receives adequate ventilation. Do not
block the ventilation holes on each side of the switch or the fan
exhaust port on the side or rear of the equipment.
- The power outlet should be within 1.8 meters of the switch.
Decide how to install the system
We strongly suggest that you install the chassis first, as this is more
convenient for you to install media converters into the chassis with ease.
The accessories supplied in the product package includes: rackmount
screws, rackmount brackets, and bracket screws.
This well-built chassis can be installed in the following ways:
MOUNTED TO 19-INCH STANDARD RACK
Use the rackmount brackets and screws to install the chassis into any EIA
19
”
standard rack.
Step 1: Attach the brackets to each side of the chassis. Apply screws to
each side and secure them tightly.
Step 2: Carefully position the chassis into the rack. Align the brackets to
the side holes on the rack and use rack screws to secure the
chassis with the rack.
Step 3: Proceed to the
“
Connecting to Power
”
section.
DESKTOP OR ANY FLAT SURFACE
The chassis can sit on desktop or any flat surface with adequate space
and ventilation. If you want to place it onto a shelf, make sure the shelf
can withstand a minimum weight of 10kg.
Step 1: Simply put the chassis on the desired place.
Step 2: Ensure the chassis receives good ventilation.
Step 3: Proceed to the
“
Connecting to Power
”
section
Installing Media converter:
The chassis is equipped with media converter carriers, each of which is
fitted into bays of the chassis.
Step 1: To install a media converter onto any of the carriers, you have to
unscrew the carrier from the desired bay first.
Step 2: Fit the media converter onto the carrier.
Step 3: When the media converter is completely seated onto the carrier,
insert the carrier to the guide rails of the bay slot.
Step 4: Carefully slide in the carrier until it is fully and firmly fitted to the
power socket. Fasten the screws on the carrier.
i. The chassis is designed to house on
ly the proprietary media
converters.
ii. Never insert any media converter into the chassis directly without
using the supplied carriers. These carriers allow secure and consistent
placement of the media converters into the chassis
’
backplane without
causing any damage.
iii. For details, please refer to the User
’
s Manual for media converters.
Connect to power:
POWER SUPPLY
The chassis ships with two power supplies. When the chassis is equipped
with two power supplies, you can have the following advanced
performance.
♦
Hot Swappable
The design of the power system is based on an idea of providing
maximum flexibility and redundancy. In this way, you may remove any
of the two power supplies without turning off the system.
♦
Redundancy
During operation, both power supplies are switched on and share the
current load. In case that one of them should fail, the other will
instantaneously take 100% of the load without any loss. Similarly, if
one power supply is removed from servicing, it can be switched off
and removed while the chassis continues functioning.
♦
Protection System
The power of each converter bay comes from the two shared power
supplies. Each bay is isolated from each other under a certain
protection mechanism, so that it is free from any problem that might
occur to the power supplies or faulty converter bay. This is the best
solution to protect your investment in media converters.
CONNECTING TO POWER
The chassis system is equipped with two power supplies.
Step 1: Connect the supplied AC power cord to the receptacle on the front
panel of each power supply.
Step 2: Attach the plug into a standard AC outlet with a voltage range from
100~240Vac.
Step 3: Turn on the chassis system by flipping the ON/OFF switch beside
the receptacle to ON position. The LEDs on the front panel of the
media converter chassis system will come on then.
Cooling system:
The chassis system can hold two power supplies and up to14 media
converters, and therefore, it is necessary to provide a good cooling
system and so to achieve obtain adequate ventilation. The chassis is
equipped with two hot-swappable power supplies with fans at the rear.
The chassis is also equipped with one fan on the left and right side of the
chassis.
