Phillips Head Screwdriver INSTALLATION To install VTAC Adapter Rails into the i2 MX Receiver or ITA, first separate the two halves of the frame by unscrewing the Phillips head screws (Figures A and B). Rails are installed in the bottom portion of the frame. - Page 8 PART # 510 170 101, 310 130 113, 310 130 114, 910 112 130 INSTALLATION Ensure the VTAC Insert(s) is in line with the corresponding module/ receiver slot(s). Inserts are installed from the rear side of the receiver/ module. When installing a patchcord containing multiple...
- Page 9 PART # 510 171 101, 910 112 130 INSTALLATION Ensure the VTAC Insert(s) is in line with the corresponding module slot(s). Inserts are installed from the rear side of the ITA module. Place the insert in with the (3) circular bosses facing down(Figure A).
- Page 10 As with installation of any multi-VTAC insert patchcord, the blue insert should be installed on top. To maximize use of the i2 MX bend radius area, it is recommended to first install VTAC patchcords in Tier A (top) ( Figure A). However, special care must be taken when using thicker wire such as RJ45 and Dacar 535.
- Page 11 A is especially important with the i2 MX ITA with housing, as it allows for better utilization of the bend radius. NOTE: Since use of larger diameter VTAC patchcords will not allow full population of all available module/ receiver slot positions, be sure to compensate for this reduced patchcord capacity in your overall system design.

Ensure that the necessary module slots contain mating inserts for the PCB's mounted headers. For the purpose of this application, the mating side of the VTAC Pass-Thru insert is the rear. Mate module with PCB assembly. Both ITA and receiver modules will mate to the PCB via the rear side. - Page 17 VTAC Extraction Tool INSTALLATION Install VTAC Right Angle Insert(s) onto PCB (see previous pages). Fasten VTAC Retention Insert to PCB using the two provided pan head Phillips screws. Ensure that the VTAC Retention insert(s) is aligned with the corresponding module/ receiver position(s). Also, ensure that any VTAC Right Angle Inserts are aligned with corresponding VTAC Pass-Thru Inserts.
- Page 18 The top/ mating end is located opposite of the compliant pins (Figure A). The compliant pins mate with the PCB via use of VPC Insertion Tool p/n 910 112 133. The top mates with the VTAC Pass-Thru Insert (Figure A).
- Page 19 PART # 910 112 133, 610 151 107 INSERTING HEADERS INTO TOOL The VTAC Vertical Header Insertion Tool is a two-piece assembly, comprised of a top and a base (Figure A ). Remove the top from the base. Notice the alignment pins on either side of the base.
