PLEASE OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS AS OUR PRODUCTS CONT AIN

CLASS I LASER PRODUCTS

WARNING

Do not disconnect the fiber optic connector while the unit is powered
up. Exposure to laser radiation is possible when the laser fiber optic
connector is disconnected while the unit is powered up.

Although the fiber optic connectors in this product emit only Class 1
energy that is below the levels considered to be hazardous, one should
never stare directly into a fiber optic connector or an unconnected fiber
end unless one can be certain that no exposure to laser energy could
occur.

CAUTION

This manual is intended for use by trained service personnel. The use
of controls, making adjustments, or performing operations other than
those specified may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

The following label or equivalent is located on the surface of laser products.

Universal Fiber Optic Card Cage System

1.0 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

BCI’s 200E Series card cage system provides a universal 19”, 3 RU
high, rack mount solution for most of BCI’s card based product line.
This enables designers a space saving and cost effective method for
utilizing multiple BCI products in a dense packaging configuration.

BCI’s system consists of a 18 slot universal chassis (200E-CC)
(16 usable slots with a single power supply) and a power supply card
(200E-CCP) that supplies 180 watts of total system power to the BCI
card based units. Each 200E-CCP power supply requires 2 slots in
the 200E-CC chassis for installation.

Redundant power applications can be satisfied by simply installing an
additional 200E-CCP into the 200E-CC card chassis.

2.0 SETUP

2.1 Mounting

Before installing the units into your 19” rack, make sure there is
enough space to pull and connect both the electrical and optical
cables without stressing them beyond the manufacturer’s
limitations (also known as the bend radius minimum).

2.2 AC Power Connection Instructions

BCI’s 200E Series card cage system provides 18 universal slots,
however power supplies utilize two slots each. BCI’s 200E
Series card cage system also supports redundancy, so if
required, a second power supply will require an additional two
slots. The rest can be used for whatever configuration your
application needs.

If not already supplied in place, determine which slot (either the
first or the last) would better accommodate easy access for
power. Slide the power supply card in by aligning the edges of
the card with the card guides inside the card cage chassis.
Slide the card in until it fully seats in, and the face of the card is
flush with the chassis. Secure the card in place by pressing in
the thumbscrews and tightening clockwise.

If not already supplied in place, install the additional I/O cards
in the same fashion, filling up the remaining available slots.
Blank panels are available (if not supplied) to cover empty slots.
Cover blank slots to keep foreign objects out of the card cage
and to maintain proper airflow.

Make sure the power switch is in the off position of the power
supply (supplies) until the system has been fully integrated.
(For transmitter and receiver site) insert one end of the supplied
power chord (s) in the proper power cord connector just below
the fan, and the other end in a power receptacle (s) of an
appropriate circuit (s).

Universal Fiber Optic Card Cage System

Refer to the individual user manuals to interface each I/O card
in your system for the appropriate signals and terminals. When
interfacing has been completed, and your system is ready to
be powered up, use the power switch(s) under the power cord
connector. If using a redundant system, either power supply is
capable of powering the system, so either one can be enabled
first.

2.3 AC Power Connection Guideline

Congratulations! Y ou are now ready to power up the BCI 200E/
200E-CCP and set up your network connection. In order to
make sure that you have a proper installation, please observe
the following:

1. Y our AC jack has power .

2. Y our electrical system has proper grounding (this ensures
that your power supply does not suffer from voltage
variations).

3. Power Surge Protection. This is optional, but highly
recommended. A UPS system provides voltage regularity
as well as prevents spikes from occurring, thus protecting
your 200E/200E-CCP from sensitive voltage conditions.

The 200E/200E-CCP derives power from an internal power
supply. This power supply is a 90-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz.

To provide power to the 200E/200E-CCP, simply connect the
200E/200E-CCP power cord, already provided with the units,
and connect it to the wall jack. (You will find one power cord
per unit). Once the power cord has been connected to the wall
jack, connect the other end, turn the switch on and the unit

should power up immediately .
