Chapter 2: Installation 2.2.1 Rack Mounting the EMC39-12 Before installing the EMC39-12, care must be taken to ensure that the rack used will support the unit and that the rack remains stable with the EMC39-12 installed. In order to allow for proper cooling within the rack, there must be a two-inch clearance on either side of the unit.
Figure 2-3 shows the surface requirements for installing the EMC39-12 on a shelf or tabletop. Shelving units must support 30 pounds of static weight. Before you install the EMC39-12, ensure the power source and environmental conditions meet the requirements specified in Chapter 1, Introduction.
1. Plug the power cord into the back panel of the EMC39-12. 2. Plug the other end of the power cord into a grounded wall outlet. 3. Verify that the PWR LED is on; this indicates that the EMC39-12 is receiving power.
EMC39-12 and to a 10BASE-T compliant Ethernet device that has a 50-pin Champ connector (e.g. Cabletron Systems’ ELM or TPRMIM). You can also run a 50-pin feeder cable from the EMC39-12 to a punch down block. The Champ connector supports twelve 10BASE-T, twisted pair segments.

10BASE-T compliant Ethernet device. 3. Check that the link LED on the 10BASE-T ethernet device and the applicable TPLNK LED on the EMC39-12 are on. If the LEDs are not on, perform each of the following steps until the LEDs are on: a.
Receive and which is Transmit. When you buy fiber optic cable from Cabletron Systems, it is labeled so that at one end of the cable, one fiber is labeled 1, and the other fiber is labeled 2. This pattern is repeated at the other end of the cable.

Chapter 3: Connecting To The Network To connect a fiber optic link segment to the EMC39-12, perform the following steps: 1. Remove the protective plastic covers from the fiber optic ports on the applicable port on the module and from the ends of the connectors on each fiber strand.
The EMC39-12 is now ready for operation. Before placing the network into service, test the installation thoroughly, making sure that you can address all stations and that the EMC39-12 and all stations are indicating normal operation. Ensure that the networking software is configured properly to match the installed network.
EMC39-12 status and diagnose problems. TPLINK 4.1 PWR (Power) • On (Green) - Indicates that the EMC39-12 is receiving power. • Off - Indicates that the unit is not receiving power. Check the input power source (circuit breakers, fuse, power cord, etc.). If the proper source is present, the problem could be with the unit.

This appendix provides cable requirements for each of the EMC39-12 ports. A.1 10BASE-T TWISTED PAIR REQUIREMENTS When you connect a 10BASE-T twisted pair segment to the EMC39-12, the device at the other end of the twisted pair segment must meet IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T specifications. Your 10BASE-T twisted pair segment must meet the following requirements.
