The 18mm ArmorBlock MaXum™ Ι/Ο Cable Bases mate with 4 or 8
point modules depending on your installation requirements. No
modification is required. Modules are interchangeable whether flat or
round media cable bases are used. This interchangeability provides
plug and play block upgrade capability and easy field replacement.
The completely assembled ArmorBlock module and base requires no
enclosure.

2 ArmorBlock MaXum I/O Cable Bases Series B
These instructions describe the installation of each cable base. The
catalog numbers for the cable bases are:
• 1792D-CB18 for 18mm trunk or drop cable installation
• 1792D-CB18P, -CB18PT for 18mm trunk or drop cable
installation when an auxiliary output power connection is
necessary
IMPORTANT
ArmorBlock MaXum modules and media cables are
ordered and shipped separately.
Install Your ArmorBlock Cable Base
To install the cable base:
• Mount the cable base
• Attach the module to the base
• Attach the cables
These procedures are explained in detail in the following sections.

ArmorBlock MaXum I/O Cable Bases Series B 3
Mount the Cable Base
The cable base can be mounted either vertically or horizontally, using
3 screws. Cable bases accommodate 4 or 8 point ArmorBlock MaXum
modules. You must allow additional space for installation of 8 point
ArmorBlock MaXum modules. They are longer than the 4 point
modules.

IMPORTANT
Make sure you properly align the screws to complete
the connections between the module contacts and the
cable contacts.
1. Position the module over the mounted cable base. Align the
three captive screws in the module with the accepting
receptacles in the base.
2. Tighten the screws with a torque of 8 inch-pounds to secure
the module to the base.
Screws must be
aligned properly to
complete contact
connections.

Class I Division 2 Groups A, B, C, D, Hazardous Locations and
nonhazardous locations only. Each product is supplied with markings
on the rating nameplate indicating the hazardous location
temperature code. When combining products within a system, the
most adverse temperature code (lowest “T” number) may be used to
help determine the overall temperature code of the system.
Combinations of equipment in your system are subject to
investigation by the local Authority Having Jurisdiction at the time of
installation.
