i2 MX RECEIVER PART IDENTIFICATION

PART # 310 130 XXX

Figure B points out distinguishing features of the i2 MX receiver so that the top and

bottom can be identied. Features to look for are the numeric keying receptacle at

the top and the alpha keying receptacle on the bottom.

When holding the i2 MX receiver, the top can be determined when the letters and
numbers are oriented as shown in Figure B. The top position is designated by a black
marking around the upper slot in Tier A and Tier B module locations (Figure B).

The front and rear of the i2 MX receiver are shown in Figure C. The front has a
polarizing feature which prevents the ITA and receiver from being engaged in the

incorrect orientation. The front of the i2 MX receiver can be identied as the side with

the latching feature (Figure A).

Figure D shows the rear silkscreen that aides in indicating positions.

The front side mates with the i2 MX ITA. Wires exit the i2 MX receiver from the rear side.

Figure B points out distinguishing features of the i2 MX ITA so that the top and bottom

can be identied. Features to look for are the numeric keying receptacle at the top

and the alpha keying receptacle on the bottom.

When holding the i2 MX ITA, the top can be determined when the letters and numbers
are readable. The top position is designated by a black marking around the upper slot
in Tier A and Tier B module locations (Figure B).

The front and rear of the i2 MX ITA are easily distinguished as shown in Figure C. The
front has a protruding guide plate with locking tabs (Figure A) and the rear has the
knob.

Figure D shows the rear silkscreen that aides in indicating positions.

The front side mates with the i2 MX receiver. The front has a polarizing feature which
prevents the ITA and receiver from being engaged in the incorrect orientation. Wires
exit the i2 MX ITA through the 30° cable exit (Figure C).

VTAC HSD INSERT INSTALLATION/REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS

TOOLS REQUIRED

VTAC Extraction Tool Kit, Receiver and ITA, Part # 910 112 130

VTAC HSD INSERT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

When inserting a VTAC HSD Insert stack, the blue insert is on top as shown

1.

in Figure B. Inserts are fully seated when the back of the inserts are  ush
with the module (Figure A).

VTAC HSD INSERT REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS

1. Group the required number of extraction tools together for the given VTAC
HSD patchcord. For example, a USB 3.0 patchcord requires two tools as
shown in Figure B.

WARNING: All inserts within each patchcord must be extracted simultaneously
to prevent damage to VTAC HSD Inserts.

NOTE: The extraction tools are magnetic to aid in stacking them together.

2. The indivdual patchcords can be identi ed by a blue insert, indicating the

beginning of a new stack or single insert patchcord as shown in Figure B.

NOTE: The slots on one side of the module are a slightly
different width than the other side to ensure the insert is
oriented correctly, as shown in Detail C in Figure C.

2. While grasping the extraction tool(s) body from the sides
(Figure B), slide tool pins into module’s extraction cavity
square holes until the tool frame is seated against the body
shown in Figure C.

WARNING: The extraction tool(s) need to be seated against
the module front face before the plunger is pushed in. Otherwise
damage to insert(s) may occur.
