Installing CAP Ms
Determine the Power Consumption of the CAP M
Use the power consumption matrix in Table 5 to calculate power consumption for a CAP M, where
the consumption numbers are at the CAP M power inputs and do not account for feed losses
•
the maximum consumption numbers in Table 5 do not include the power consumed by any attached
•
auxiliary devices. Both CAP M power consumption and auxiliary device power must be included when
calculating feed losses.
Configuration
1
Does not include SFP+ Module consumption. Can support up to 3W (more with engineering
consultation) maximum total SFP+ Module consumption. Typical installation (sufficient for SM up to
10km or MM) would be 0.8W typical, 1.0W max for each SFP+ Module.
Mains power must be interruptible with an external delay-actions mains breaker. For the Mains breaker,
observe the following recommendations.
•
For the AC power supply, 120 Volt / 20 Amp max. or 240 Volt / 16 Amp, single-phase, 50 / 60 Hz AC
service is needed, i.e. the external AC breaker should be 20 Amps max. for 120-Volt service or 13 to
16 Amps for 240-Volt service.
•
For the DC power supply, observe the local regulations of the DC service provider.
Determine the Mounting Site
When deciding on a suitable mounting site, observe the following rules; refer also to "Mounting Orientation"
on page 24.
The CAP M is suitable for installation indoors or outdoors.
•
Use the weights listed in Table 6 to determine a site that can bear the weight of the CAP M that is being
•
installed, where:
The "Maximum Lift Weight" is the highest weight that must be lifted during installation. (An installer
–
should lift the CAP M components one at a time, not a wholly configured CAP M.)
The "Total Hanging Weight" is the weight of the CAP M, including the weight of the Mounting Bracket,
–
minus the weight of the external cables and connectors, that the mounting site must be able to
support.
Use the dimensions shown in Figure 4 on page 17 for Single Mount and Figure 5 on page 18 for Dual
•
Mount.
