Installation

Additional Equipment

Network Cables
Use shielded Cat5e (or higher) Ethernet cables, limiting cable runs to 100
meters maximum between network devices.
Audio Cables
Reference the hardware kit user guide supplied with the MXW Audio
Network Interface to assemble audio cables to the connectors.
Gigabit DHCP Router (systems with >1 APT)
For systems with more than one APT, a DHCP router is recommended to
connect equipment. Ensure that it meets the following requirements:
• Gigabit ports
• Provides Class 0 PoE with at least 6.5W (for powering the MXWAPT)
• Quality of Service (QoS) with 4 queues
• Diffserv (DSCP) QoS, with strict priority
• If the router features Energy Efficient Ethernet (or Green Ethernet),
ensure it is disabled from the ports dedicated for the MXW system.
• Recommended: A managed switch to provide detailed information
about the operation of each network link: port speed, error counters,
bandwidth used, etc.

Rack Installation

Rackmount the device using the screws and washers supplied in the Hardware Kit.
Follow these general best practices when installing equipment in a rack:
• Ambient temperature of the rack should not exceed specified operating
temperature range of the device.
• Keep fan inlet and side air vents clear from obstructions and provide adequate
space for airflow within the rack.
• When possible, provide 1 RU of empty space between each device.

Securing the Networked Charging Station

The Network Charging Station can be secured to a surface using the holes on the bottom of the device. Reference the NCS Mounting Template for
measuring and drilling holes. The following is a list of best practices for securing the charging station:

Required Equipment

• Two #10-32 screws at appropriate length*
• Two #10 flat washers
• Two #10 split lock washers
*Screw Length = Table thickness + thread engagement (4.75 mm max.) + thickness of flat washer + the thickness of the split lock washer

Installation Steps

1. Reference the template and mark location of holes
2. Drill holes into the mounting surface
3. Connect the Ethernet and power cable to the charging station
4. Place the charger and screw the #10-32 screws into the table and charging station. (CAUTION: Do not over-tighter screws, as this could cause permanent
damage to the charging station.)
