This chapter describes how to install:
•
The MCC-16 in a 19-inch rack
An MCC-PS power supply into the MCC-16
•
•
A Conversion Module (CM) into the MCC-16
Cable into a CM port
•
The chapter also details maximum cable lengths, station count limits, and
troubleshooting.
Only qualified personnel should perform installation
procedures.
2.1 INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
Check that all cabling guidelines detailed in Appendix B have been met
before installing and operating the MCC-16. The following guidelines are
also helpful:
Ensure that any enclosure site allows adequate cooling by
!
providing three inches of clearance on the sides, above, and
behind the MCC-16.
CAUTION
Also, ensure that the ambient temperature in the installation
location neither falls below 5 C nor exceeds 40 C and changes
at a rate of no more than 10 C per hour.
The MCC-16 can be rack-mounted or placed on any horizontal
•
surface.
Use a single phase 100 to 125 Vac (or 200 to 240 Vac) grounded power
•
source located within 6 feet (so the power cord can be connected) of
the installation site.
Ensure that any shelf on which an MCC-16 (fully-loaded) is placed
•
will support 40 pounds of static weight.
