The Status output is a potential free, opto-isolated, alternation (Form-C) solid-state relay. This can be configured to monitor various alarm events within the product, see WeOS user documentation at www.westermo.com. An external load in series with an external DC voltage source is required for proper functionality.
3.4.5. SFP Transceivers The product supports UL and IEC certified transceivers only. See Westermo's modular transceivers datasheets 100 Mbit and 1 Gbit for supported SFP transceivers, which can be downloaded from the product support pages at www.westermo.com/support/product- support. Each SFP slot can hold one SFP transceiver. See "Transceiver User Guide 6100-0000" for transceiver handling instructions, which also can be downloaded from the product support pages at www.westermo.com/support/product-support.

4. Installation 4.1. Mounting RedFox is designed for installation in 19" rack solutions according to ETSI standard, with a shallow depth of 240 millimetres. It can also be wall mounted as an installation option. 4.1.1. Rack Mounting The product can be mounted in all directions inside a 19" apparatus cabinet. Use supplied M6x25 (Philips no.
4.3. Cooling This product relies on convection cooling. To avoid obstruction of the airflow around the product, follow the spacing recommendations. For mounting in 19" apparatus cabinet without forced ventilation, a minimal spacing of 1U according to IEC 60297 or 45 mm (1.75") above/below is recommended. With forced ventilation, no minimal spacing is required as long as the temperature of the rear cooling plates does not exceed +85ºC (+185ºF).
