Installing the 20-Slot Rackmount Chassis

Install the chassis first before installing any modules into a 20-Slot Rackmount Chassis. When installing the chassis, be sure to observe the following precautions to prevent electrical or mechanical damage:

Protect the chassis from exposure to sunlight and electrical or magnetic fields.

Ensure that the equipment rack remains stable, even with the addition of the chassis and its associated cabling.

To install 20-Slot Rackmount chassis:

Have four #10 screws and four clip nuts available (hardware may vary depending on

1. rack type). The rest of the hardware is supplied with the unit.

Locate a suitable location in the rack for installation and secure the clip-nuts onto the

2. mounting rails. Use screws to attach the chassis to the rack.

Plug the chassis into a reliable, filtered power source.

Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the

4. operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the Black Box.

Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the

5. amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a

6. hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

7. Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on over current protection and supply wiring.

Reliable Grounding - Reliable grounding of Rackmounted equipment should be

8. maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).

All AC and DC versions are intended for use in a Restricted Access Location (RAL

Wiring Instruction Guidelines for DC Module in 2DC and ACDC

1. Connection of a suitable grounding conductor to the grounding terminal at each

power supply module (a minimum 14AWG copper conductor should be suitable based on a 15A circuit breaker requirement).

2. Connection of suitable supply wiring to the plus and minus terminals at each

power supply module (a minimum 14AWG copper conductors is considered suitable based on the 11A input maximum). The input terminal block at the power supply module is suitable for 22-14 AWG copper wire.

3. A suitable listed circuit breaker shall be provided in the building installation as

the unit's disconnect device. The branch circuit rating (i.e. minimum 15A listed circuit breaker, etc.).

DC Power Supply Module Wiring Instructions

The following diagram shows the wiring configuration for a -48 VDC power supply module for the 20-Slot Rackmount Chassis 2DC and ACDC.

NOTE

The chassis is protected against incorrect wiring configurations. When wired incorrectly, the

chassis will not function, but no damage will occur.

Installing SNMP Management and Application Modules

To install a module:

Remove the blank bracket (if present) covering the slot where the module will be

1. installed. Black Box recommends installing blank brackets in unused module slots.

Slide the module into the chassis using the card guides.

Secure the module to the chassis by tightening the captive screw. (Refer to the

3. documentation shipped with the module for configuration information.)

When installing modules observe ESD precautions, refer to the Electrostatic Discharge

4. Precautions section.

In order to manage a 20-Slot Rackmount Chassis, the SNMP Management Module needs to be installed in the appropriate slot of the chassis.

 Install the 20-Slot Rackmount Chassis SNMP Management Module into the first slot

of the chassis.

NOTE

This slot is ONLY for the Management Module; do not install Application Modules such as

media conversion and mode conversion modules in this slot.

Replacing Power Supply Modules

User-Replaceable Power Supply Modules

While power supply modules are redundant, failed power supply modules should promptly be replaced to maintain network integrity and prevent data loss.

To replace a power supply module:

When installing the chassis, be sure to observe the following precautions to prevent electrical or mechanical damage:

Stay within the chassis’ power rating to prevent overload of supply circuits or damage to

any overcurrent protection and supply wiring.

Maintain reliable ground, especially when connecting to a power strip instead of directly to a branch circuit.

Protect the chassis from exposure to sunlight and electrical or magnetic fields.

Ensure that the equipment rack remains stable, even with the addition of the chassis and its associated cabling.

Use the 3-Slot Desktop Chassis. as a table-top chassis, mount in a Rackmount shelf or mount it to a wall surface.

Install the 3-Slot Desktop Chassis by placing it on a flat surface.

Make sure to leave adequate space on the sides of the unit to accommodate cooling.

If mounting on a Rackmount shelf, align holes of the chassis to the shelf and secure with

screws.

The Rackmount shelf is sold separately. To purchase the Rackmount shelf (part number (LMC5238); visit the Black Box Product Accessories page:

http://www.blackbox.com/Store/Results.aspx/search-LMC5238%5e%5e%5e/p-0

Rackmounting requires a Rackmount shelf for mounting up to two units side by side.

Attach the cables between the chassis and the device that will be interconnected, and

then plug the unit into a reliable, filtered power source.

If mounting the chassis on a wall, place two #10 panhead screws (not supplied) on the

wall according to the distance of the holes on the chassis, and then hang the unit on the screws.

All versions are intended for use in a Restricted Access Location (RAL).

7. A readily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated in the building installation

wiring.

A suitable listed circuit breaker shall be provided in the building installation as the unit’s

disconnect device. The branch circuit rating (i.e. minimum 15A listed circuit breaker, etc.).

DC Power Wiring, Replacing Power Supply and Fans

DC Power Supply Wiring Instructions

The following image shows the wiring configuration for a 48 VDC power supply in a negative ground system application. For positive ground system applications remove the chassis ground shorting jumper and connect it between the positive terminal and the chassis ground terminal. Alternatively, the chassis grounding jumper can be eliminated and the chassis ground connected at the power source. The ground terminal and the negative terminal are not connected inside the iMediaChassis/3.

Installing Management and Application Modules

SNMP Management Modules include two twisted pair ports, one for management and one reserved for future use. The Management Module also features a DB-9 serial port, and supports SNMP V1/V2c.

Installing Applications Modules

To install a module:

Remove the blank bracket (if present) covering the slot where the module will be

installed. Black Box recommends installing blank brackets in unused module slots.

Slide the module into the chassis using the card guides.

Secure the module to the chassis by tightening the captive screw. (Refer to the

documentation shipped with the module for configuration information.)

In order to manage a Desktop Chassis, the SNMP Management Module needs to be installed in the appropriate slot of the chassis.

• Install the 3-Slot Desktop Chassis slot SNMP Management Module into the bottom

left slot.

NOTE

This slot is ONLY for the Management Module; do not install Application Modules such as

media conversion and mode conversion modules in this slot.

SNMP Write Lock

The SNMP Write Lock switch is located on the back of the 3-Slot Desktop Chassis. The SNMP Write Lock switch prevents a new management board from re-configuring the application module settings (e.g., the status of features such as LinkLoss, FiberAlert, Force mode, etc.) made via SNMP on any previous Management Modules.

NOTE

Leave this switch in the position should only be used when changing the SNMP management board.

Fiber Optic 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.

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.

Dust caps are installed at Black Box 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.

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.

If it is suspected 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 stand alone units, containing electronic components. Always observe the following precautions when installing or handling these kinds of products

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

Wear an ESD wrist grounding strap before handling any module or component. If the

wrist strap is not available, maintain grounded contact with the system unit throughout any procedure requiring ESD protection.

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

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 stand alone 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.
