1 INSTALLATION
1.1 SITE REQUIREMENTS
To ensure normal operation and avoid unnecessary maintenance, plan your site configuration and
prepare your site before installation.
1.1.1 DC POWER
The DC-input power supply operates at -48 volts direct current (VDC) input voltage and supplies
-48VDC power to the channel bank's internal components through the TE-50 midplane.
Note: Each Turin DC-input power supply uses a common 4 pole connector that has an
electrical current rating of 10A. Although the TE-50 has a current draw of only 3A, use a
minimum of 16 AWG (1.25mm 2) wire for the input to each DC-input power supply. This allows
use of a common DC power cable for all Turin DC powered products. The power input must be
protected by a 10A circuit breaker or fuse that is in compliance with your local electricity
regulations.
1.1.2 AC POWER
The TE-50 chassis can be optionally ordered with an external AC-input power supply. The external
AC supply has an input rated at 100 to 240 VAC at 1.5A and 50 to 60Hz.
1.1.3 GROUND CONNECTOR
All TE-50s must be connected to an electrical ground. The equipment grounding should be in
accordance with local and national electrical codes. Use a minimum of 16 AWG (1.25 mm

Caution: You must power down the system before removing or replacing motherboard, power
supply or midplane. Follow these basic guidelines when working with any electrical equipment:
2.1 SAFETY WITH ELECTRICITY
The Interface Modules are designed to be removed and replaced while the system is operating
without presenting an electrical hazard or damage to the system.
Before beginning any procedures requiring access to the chassis interior, locate the
emergency power-off switch for the room in which you are working.
Disconnect all power and external cables before installing or removing a chassis.
Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.
Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit; always check.
Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment
unsafe.
Never install equipment that appears damaged.
Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors, ungrounded
power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.
Warning: Before working on a chassis or working near power supplies, unplug the power cord
on AC units; disconnect the power at the circuit breaker on DC units.
In addition, use the guidelines that follow when working with any equipment that is
disconnected from a power source, but still connected to telephone wiring or other network
cabling:
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet
locations.
Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been
disconnected at the network interface.
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Warning: Before opening the chassis, disconnect the telephone-network cables to avoid
contact with telephone-network voltages.
Warning: The telecommunications lines must be disconnected 1) before unplugging the main
power connector and/or 2) while the housing is open.
Warning: Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of
lightning activity.

Turin Networks, Inc. Ch 1-2: TE-50 Chassis and Operating Environment
2.2 PREVENTING ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE DAMAGE
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which occurs when electronic cards or components are
improperly handled, can result in complete or intermittent system failures. Each IM consists of a
printed circuit board that is fixed in a metal carrier. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding,
connectors, and a handle are integral components of the carrier. Although the carrier helps protect the
boards, use an antistatic strap whenever handling. Handle the IMs by the case only; never touch the
boards or connector pins.
Following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:
• Always use an ESD wrist strap or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.
• When handling a removed IM or motherboard, make sure the equipment end of your ESD strap is
attached to an unfinished chassis surface of the TE-50; do not touch the printed circuit board, and
avoid contact between the printed circuit board and your clothing.
• Always place IM or motherboard component side up on an antistatic surface or in a static shielding
bag. If you are returning the item to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding bag.
Caution: For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The
measurement should be between 1 and 10 Megohm (Mohm).
2.3 SAFETY WITH LASER RADIATION
If a fiber optic IM is installed in the TE-50, users must take suitable precautions to protect against
damage to eyes from Class 1 laser radiation.
The fiber optic IMs transmit invisible laser radiation. When not in use or connected to fiber optic
cables, the fiber optic IM connectors must have the dust caps fitted.
Warning: The fiber optic IM transmits invisible laser radiation.
Do not stare into beam or view directly with optical instruments.
This is a Class 1 laser product, operating at 1310nm or 1550nm, 0.5mW maximum.
