Figure 4-2: Installing Mounting Brackets

4.4 Installation Factors

- Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature: If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, operating ambient temperature in rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install

equipment in an environment compatible with manufacturer's maximum rated ambient temperature ( T_mra ).

- Reduced Air Flow: Install equipment in a rack in a manner that does not compromise the amount of airflow required for safe operation of equipment.

- Mechanical Loading: When mounting equipment in rack, ensure mechanical loading is even.

- Circuit Overloading: Take into consideration the connection of equipment to supply circuit and the effect overloading of circuits might have on over-current protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings must be given when addressing this concern.

- Reliable Grounding (Earthing): Maintain reliable earthing of rack mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections, other than direct connections to branch circuit (for example, the use of power strips).

4.5 Connecting Ethernet Cables

Ports on Midspan's front panel are configured as "Pass Through" ports for eight (1, 2, 3, 6, 4, 5, 7, 8) conductors of RJ-45 connectors. Use Category 5 cabling when making connections.

  1. Connect cables from Ethernet Switch to DATA IN ports (lower row on front panel).

  2. Connect cables from PoH or IEEE 802.3at ready terminals (PDs) to corresponding DATA & POWER OUT ports (upper row on front panel).

4.6 Connecting Power Cables

When using an AC source to power Midspan, plug in the provided power cord to back AC connector.

4.7 Powering Up the Unit

Power over Ethernet Midspan has no on/off switch. To apply or remove power from Midspan, insert or remove power cable to receptacle (AC) on the back panel of the unit.

With power applied;

  • Midspan powers-up.

This mode provides seamless failover between two Midspans. If one of the two Midspans' internal power supplies fails, failure is detected automatically and working power supply provides power to Midspan. Both Midspans are ensured continuous uptime and all active ports continue to operate without any effect on connected powered devices.

Power redundancy mode is available in the following midspans:

■ PD-9612G/ACDC/M

■ PD-9606G/ACDC/M

Note: When using power redundancy option, connect together only units that share the same power supply:

■ 1Kw power supply units

○ PD-9612G/ACDC/M

○ PD-9606G/ACDC/M

WARNING:

When connecting power redundancy connectors, make sure AC power in both Midspans is disconnected from AC mains!

8.2 Power Backup

In case one of Midspans' power supplies fails, unit maintains full functionality by using an optional backup power supply.
