The DMD2050 Modem is designed to be installed within any standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) wide
equipment cabinet or rack. It requires 1 rack unit (RU) of mounting space (1.75 inches/4.45 cm)
vertically and 19.25 inches (48.89 cm) of depth. Including cabling, a minimum of 19.5 inches
(49.53 cm) of rack depth is required. The rear panel of the modem is has power entering from
the left and IF Cabling entering from the right (as viewed from the rear of the unit). Data and
Control Cabling can enter from either side. The modem can be placed on a table or suitable
surface if required.
There are no user-serviceable parts or configuration settings located
inside the DMD2050 Chassis. There is a potential shock hazard internally
at the power supply module. DO NOT open the DMD2050 Chassis under
any circumstances.
Before initially applying power to the unit, it is a good idea to disconnect
the transmit output from the operating ground station equipment. This is
especially true if the current DMD2050 configuration settings are
