CHAPTER 2 - Installation
Preparing for Installation

2.1.4 Fiber Optic Safety

Before installing the DX40 you should be aware that devices that employ laser technology, such as the fiber optical SFP ports and associated cabling, can be dangerous. Do not look directly into a fiber optic port or into the end of a fiber optic line. Doing so could cause injury to your eye or blindness. Always assume that there is laser activity in the line or port, even if the device is powered down. As a reminder, whenever this manual calls for the handling of fiber optic lines, those instructions will be accompanied by a “Laser Warning,” as follows:
LASER WARNING: DO NOT LOOK INTO A FIBER OPTIC CABLE OR PORT! These can produce invisible light that may do serious eye damage. Always assume that fiber optic cables or ports are actively radiating light energy.

2.1.5 Fiber Optic Handling

Contamination from dust, dirt, oils from the hands and other sources can impede the transmission and reception of optical signals through the optical fibers.When handling the optical connectors and fiber cables, follow these precautions to minimize the contamination of the connectors and ports:
• Cover optical connectors and ports with dust caps when they are not in use.
• Do not touch fiber tips or the interior of optical ports when handling fiber
cables and connectors.
• Clean fiber optic connectors as described in Section 2.4.2.1, “Cleaning
Connectors” prior to making any optical connection.
• Clean optical ports as described in Section 2.4.2.2, “Cleaning Optical Po rts”
if contaminants or degraded performance are noted on the interface.
Fiber optic connectors should be cleaned after each use and optical ports should be cleaned if you notice contamination or degraded performance.
Fiber optic cables and connectors are fragile and can be easily broken through rough handling. When handling fiber optic media, take the following precautions:
• Do not strike the fiber cable with tools.
• Do not pinch, crimp, or compress the jacketing of the optical cable.
• Do not use less than the minimum bend radius of 3 inches (7.62 cm) when
routing or coiling cables.

2.1.6 External Connections

You can speed up the installation of the DX40 by having the following equipment and information on hand before beginning:
• A supply of cables and connectors of the required types.
• IP addresses for new devices and any existing devices you will be
connecting to.
• Your notes on naming conventions and end point information.

Unpacking

2.2 Unpacking

Unpack and inspect the DX40. The DX40 is shipped with the following items in the box:
• DX40 unit
• Appropriate mounting brackets: for DIN rail applications the DIN mounting
bracket is permanently attached with rivets ; for panel mounting two bracket s are attached with screws
• Document CD-ROM
• Optionally, Ethernet cable - RJ45 terminations, 10' long
• Optionally, two fiber optic SFPs
Be sure that all the equipment you have ordered is included in the shipment. Remove the unit from the styrofoam end caps and inspect the DX40 chassis for dents or
other shipping related damage. Report any damage immediately to GarrettCom Utility Networks customer support and DO NOT INSTALL the unit.

2.2.1 Attaching Optional Ethernet Fiber Optic SFPs

The SFPs are optional equipment for the DX40. Depending on the specifics of your order these might have been installed at the factory. It is also possible that you have ordered them separately from GarrettCom or from another manufacturer . If this is the case, before proceeding with mounting the unit and making cable connections, you must install the SFPs in Ethernet ports E1 and/or E2.
ELECTRICAL WARNING: SFPs are static-sensitive devices. Failure to handle these devices properly can cause premature failure. Follow proper static safe handling precautions (such as the use of static safe wrist straps) when working with SFPs.
All SFPs must conform to industry standards and they share a similar appearance.

2.3.3 Connecting Network Cables

There are three types of connections that can be made to the DX40. They are serial, Ethernet copper, and Ethernet fiber optic. The following sections describe each type of connection separately.
2.3.3.1 Connecting Serial Cables
terminal holes
Figure 2-7. Non-Polarized Power Input
This procedure assumes that one end of the Serial device cable is already att ached to the end unit. Be aware of the serial port numbering scheme when installing the cables (see Figure 1-1 on page 1). The ports are configured in software later on and if a device is accidentally connected to the wrong port it will be difficult to detect.
Connect cables to the Serial ports as described below:
1.Align the DB9 connector with appropriate serial port and push gently until the connector is completely mated to the port.
2.Tighten the two extended capture screws hand tight.
3.Make sure that the connector is not supporting the whole weight of the cable.
Providing strain relief on these cables will ensure a stable connection.
4.Return to step one above and connect the remainder of the serial cables.
2.3.3.2 Connecting Ethernet Copper Cables
If your DX40 is configured with port E2 as a standard RJ45 port, connect a shielded Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port as follows.(see Figure 1-1 on page 1).
1.Install the RJ45 connector into the port with the clip facing up.
2.Push the RJ45 connector into the slot until you hear a click.
3.Give the cable a gentle tug to ensure that the connector clip is firmly seated.
4.Verify that the connection has been made by checking the LED associated with
this port on the DX40 chassis. It should be illuminated. If the link LED is not illuminated verify that the equipment on the other end of the cable is powered up and properly connected.

2.4.2 Cleaning Fiber Optic Devices

This section covers the cleaning requirements and procedures for the fiber optic cable connectors and the optical ports on the DX40. Clean the connectors after each use and the optical ports when contamination is suspected or there is a performance degradation which may be attributable to contamination. All fiber optic connectors and optical ports should be capped with dust caps when not in use.
The cleaning materials used should be rated for fiber optic devices. Specifically cloth, wipes and swabs should be lint-free, non-abrasive and free of additives. Cleaning fluids should be restricted to optical-grade isopropyl alcohol. Canned (compressed) air should be used to blow out dust and particulate matter and to dry residual isopropyl alcohol after cleaning.
2.4.2.1 Cleaning Connectors
These instructions are recommended each time a fiber optic connector is use d. Clean the fiber optic connectors as follows:
1.Blow out any dust or particulate matter from the connector end, using canned air.
2.Wipe out the connector end surfaces with a cloth or pad saturated in isopropyl alcohol.
3.Blow dry the connector surfaces, using canned air, by directing the air flow across the tip but not directly down onto the tip.
4.Using care not to touch the fiber tip, install a dust cap or connect to an optical port.
2.4.2.2 Cleaning Optical Ports
These instructions are recommended only when there is evidence of contamination or when reduced performance has been detected. Clean the optical ports as follows:
1.If required, remove the fiber optic connector from the optical port and clean the connector as described in “Cleaning Connectors,” above.
2.Insert the extension tube, supplied with the canned air, into the canned air nozzle and blow out the optical port. Use care not to touch the bottom of the optical port.
3.Reconnect the fiber optic connector removed in step 1.
