Follow these guidelines to create a safe operating environment:
Keep tools and chassis components off the floor and away from foot traffic.
•
Clear the area of possible hazards, such as moist floors, ungrounded power
•
extension cables, and missing safety grounds.
Keep the area around the chassis free from dust and foreign conductive
•
material (such as metal flakes from nearby construction activity).
Ensure that the plug-socket combination is accessible at all times, because it
serves as the main disconnecting device. For the WLSE's power requirements, see
Appendix A, "Technical Specifications for the WLSE 1130-19."
This product relies on the building's installation for short-circuit (overcurrent)
protection. Make sure that a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC,
15A U.S. and 240 VAC, 10A international are used on the phase conductors (all
current-carrying conductors).
Use the cables in the accessory kit to connect the WLSE's console port to a
console or computer that is running a console program. In addition to the console
cable, you must supply your own standard Ethernet cable to connect the WLSE to
your network. For information detailing cable requirements, see
Connectors, page
1-6.
A structured wiring system provides a standardized way to wire a building for all
types of networks for the WLSE to be installed. The main distribution frame links
all the building's interior wiring and provides an interface connection to circuits
coming from outside sources such as the local telephone company. Wiring hubs
(peripherals for cabling installations) provide the connection logic unique to Fast
Ethernet cables that the WLSE uses. Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) copper wire
is used to connect the WLSE and distributes the network connections to wall jacks
near each piece of network equipment.
