Installation
The Cougar Video Matrix Switcher is comprised of a frame, backplane, a
32X32 Video Matrix Card, up to four 16X16 Crosspoint Cards, up to two
System Controller Cards, and up to two PS70V Power Supplies. Prior to
discarding packing material compare the parts received against the pack-
ing list. Carefully inspect the layers of packing material for any compo-
nents which may have been overlooked during the initial unpacking.
The Cougar Video Routing Switcher may be located anywhere power is
available. However, units should be mounted as close as possible to their
associated equipment to minimize cable runs. Forced air cooling is pro-
vided by a small fans located at the back of the unit. Care should be taken
not to block airflow around these fans. Installation should be in an area
where the ambient temperature does not exceed 40°C (104°F) inside the
equipment rack.
The Cougar Video Routing Switcher is rack mountable in a standard 19"
equipment rack. Sufficient space must be provided behind the equipment
racks to allow for the control cables and power cable. All mounting holes
should be utilized and mounting hardware tightened securely. As with all
equipment installed in a rack, the bottom screw on each side should be
installed before proceeding with the remainder of the screws. Then all
screws should be securely tightened. Support the Cougar Switcher's
bottom while installing it in the rack. Figure 2-1 illustrates chassis installa-
tion in the equipment rack. NOTE: Remove the power supply retaining
screws before installing the Cougar Video Routing Switcher in an equip-
ment rack.
To install a Cougar Video Routing Switcher in an equipment rack follow
these steps:
1. Align the frame with the slotted opening in the rack.
2. Install the bottom screws first.
3. Install the two top screws
4. Tighten all four screws securely.
