ABOUT THE IE-MEDIACHASSIS/1-AC

The Industrial Ethernet IE-MediaChassis/1-AC is a compact and modular,
single-slot, table-top unit that hosts a variety of B+B SmartWorx iMcV
modules. IE-MediaChassis/1-AC has two power options: a 4-terminal DC
power block, and a country-specific external AC power adapter. In addition,
IE-MediaChassis/1-AC also includes: extended voltage range; extended
operating temperature; and DIN clips for mounting the enclosure on DIN rail.
Deploy these standalone chassis units at the customer premises (CPE) or
each access point.

NOTE: Some options require items that are sold separately, available from B+B SmartWorx.

CONFIGURING & INSTALLING MODULES

To install a module (any iMcV series module except double-wide modules),
slide the module into the chassis until the module is firmly seated in the
backplane. Secure the module to the chassis by tightening the captive screw.

NOTE

: Please refer to the online installation guide for the module for configuration and operation information.

NOTE

: The power source in this chassis is not isolate, and cannot support positive reference ground systems typically used

in Telco environments. The MediaChassis/2-DC and the iMediachassis/6-DC are suitable alternates.

INSTALLING THE IE-MEDIACHASSIS/1- AC

IE-MediaChassis/1-AC installs virtually anywhere: as a standalone, table-top
device; on a DIN rail; or wall-mounted.

TABLE-TOP INSTALLATION

As a table-top unit, install the IE-MediaChassis/1-AC by placing it on a flat
surface. Make sure to leave adequate space on top of the unit to
accommodate cooling. Attach network cables between the module and other
devices that will be interconnected, and then plug the unit into a reliable,
filtered power source.

WALLMOUNT BRACKET INSTALLATION

Wallmount Brackets, an optional accessory available from B+B SmartWorx
(part number 895-39229), allow the IE-MediaChassis/1-AC to be wall­mounted. Refer to DIN rail mounting diagram for this mounting option.

DIN RAIL MOUNTING

NOTE: DIN clips are designed for use on a DIN-35 rail.

The IE-MediaChassis/1-AC can be mounted with two DIN rail clips (hardware
option available from B+B SmartWorx). The DIN rail clips include screws to
allow installation on a DIN rail. Install the screws into DIN rail clips, which
should be mounted perpendicular to the DIN rail. Snap the converter onto the
clips. To remove the converter from the DIN rail, insert a flat-head screwdriver
into the slot to gently pry the converter from the DIN rail.

POWERING THE IE-MEDIACHASSIS/1-AC

IE-MediaChassis/1-AC includes multiple powering options. Any one of the
following options can be used - or more than one for redundancy:

• Country-specific, high-reliability AC power adapter (included).

• 4-terminal DC power block.

DC TERMINAL BLOCK WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

IE-MediaChassis/1-AC can be powered via the DC terminal block. From a
power source, connect to any one positive and any one negative terminal on
the IE-MediaChassis/1-AC. The below diagram shows a wiring configuration
example for the DC terminal block of IE-MediaChassis/1-AC (±7 to 50 VDC).

NOTE

: When using stranded wire, the leads must be tinned. The chassis is protected against mis-wiring; if mis-wired, the
chassis will not function. The chassis is internally connected to the negative power terminal. The power source in this
chassis is not isolated and cannot support positive reference ground systems typically used in Telco environments. The
MediaChassis/2-DC and the iMediaChassis/6-DC are suitable alternatives.

CASCADING DC POWER

When installing multiple IE-MediaChassis/1-AC units on a DIN rail, use one
DC input source then cascade from one DC block to the next, until reaching
the maximum current available. Make sure to connect positive-to-positive and
negative-to-negative.

DC POWER SUPPLY PRECAUTIONS

The following precautions should be observed when installing chassis with DC power
supplies.

1. Check nameplate ratings to assure there is no overloading of supply circuits that
could have an affect on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.

2. When installing DC equipment, it must be installed only per the following conditions:
a. Connect the equipment to a ±7 to ±50 VDC supply source that is electrically

isolated form the alternating current source. The ±7 to ±50 VDC source is to be
connected to a SELV source.

b. Input wiring to the terminal block must be routed and secured in such a manner

that it is protected from damage and stress. Do not route wiring past sharp
edges or moving parts.

c. A readily accessible disconnect device, with a 3 mm minimum contact gap,

should be incorporated in the fixed wiring.

3. Grounding: reliable grounding of this equipment must be maintained. Particular
attention should be given to supply connections when connecting to power strips,
rather than direct connections to the branch circuit.

STATEMENTS, GUIDELINES, PRECAUTIONS

FCC RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENT

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class A computing device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which the user will be
required to correct the interference at his own expense.

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

The use of non-shielded I/O cables may not guarantee compliance with FCC
RFI limits. This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio
noise emission from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference
Regulation of the Canadian Department of Communications.

Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques
dépassant les limites applicables aux appareils numériques de classe A
prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique publié par le
ministère des Communications du Canada.

FIBER O PTIC CLEANING GUIDELINES

Fiber Optic transmitters and receivers are extremely susceptible to
contamination by particles of dirt or dust, which can obstruct the optic path and
cause performance degradation. Good system performance requires clean
optics and connector ferrules.

1. Use fiber patch cords (or connectors, if you terminate your own fiber)

only from a reputable supplier; low-quality components can cause many
hard-to-diagnose problems in an installation.

2. Dust caps are installed at the factory to ensure factory-clean optical

devices. These protective caps should not be removed until the moment
of connecting the fiber cable to the device. Should it be necessary to
disconnect the fiber device, reinstall the protective dust caps.

3. Store spare caps in a dust-free environment such as a sealed plastic

bag or box so that, when reinstalled, they do not introduce any
contamination to the optics.

4. If you suspect that the optics have been contaminated, alternate

between blasting with clean, dry, compressed air and flushing with
methanol to remove particles of dirt.

ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PRECAUTIONS

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause damage to any product, add-in
modules or standalone units, containing electronic components. Always
observe the following precautions when installing or handling these kinds of
products:

1. Do not remove unit from its protective packaging until ready to install.

2. Wear an ESD wrist grounding strap before handling any module or
component. If a wrist strap is not available, maintain grounded
contact with the system unit throughout any procedure requiring ESD
protection.

3. Hold the units by the edges; do not touch the electronic components
or gold connectors.

4. After removal, always place the boards on a grounded, static-free
surface, ESD pad or in a proper ESD bag. Do not slide the modules
or standalone units over any surface.

WARNING! Integrated circuits and fiber optic components are
extremely susceptible to

electrostatic discharge damage. Do

not handle

these components directly unless you are a qualified
service technician and use tools and techniques that conform to
accepted industry practices.
