NOTE: TX Mode configuration must be set when the module is powered off. If you wish to change a TX Mode switch setting after the module has been powered on, power off the module, change the TX Mode switch setting, and then power on the module again.
MOUNTING
The SX8205R module can be mounted into a rack or can be used as a stand-alone module. As a stand- alone module, the unit can be placed on a desktop or can be mounted to a wall.
NOTE: As a matter of convenience, it is recommended that you set the modes of operation for each 10BASE-T/100-BASE-TX port—if required—before mounting the SX8205R module into a rack or onto a wall. For information about setting the port modes of operation, refer to Setting 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Port Modes of Operation on page 10.
MOUNTING THE SX8205R MODULE INTO A RACK
The SX8205R module can be installed into an RK5000 Series rack mount chassis, which can be mounted into an industry-standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) equipment rack. The RK5000 Series rack mount chassis includes the following models:
•RK5000PS-3U and RK5000-3U:Designed to accommodate fiber optic modules as follows:
–The RK5000PS-3U rack mount chassis provides 12 single-width module slots and a power supply.
–The RK5000-3U rack mount chassis provides 14 single-width module slots (a power supply is not included). Power to the modules can be supplied using the optional external power supply (EPS5000-120).
For additional information, refer to the RK5000PS-3U/RK5000-3U Fiber Rack Mount Chassis Installation manual.
•RK5000PS-5U:Designed to accommodate Endura™ modules but can also accommodate fiber optic modules and the SX8205R module with the use of the appropriate adapter kit. The RK5001-1UEXP adapter kit is required for installation of the SX8205R module into the RK5000PS-5U chassis.
MOUNTING THE SX8205R MODULE TO A WALL
The SX8205R module can be mounted to a wall in the following ways:
•Using the supplied wall clip for attachment of a single module to a wall. For installation instructions, refer to Mounting the SX8205R Module Using the Wall Clip on page 13.
•Using the optional WM5001 wall mount kits, which are designed for mounting of single-width fiber optic modules. The WM5001-3U base kit allows mounting of a single module to a wall. The WM5001-3UEXP expansion kit allows mounting of an additional module. It is recommended that a maximum of three expansion kits be used with the base kit, allowing a maximum of four single-width modules to be mounted to a wall.
NOTE: The WM5001 wall mount kits can be used with the WM5002 wall mount kits, which are designed for mounting of double-width fiber optic modules. If mounting a mix of single-width and double-width modules is desired, it is recommended that a maximum of two single-width modules and one double-width module be mounted in combination with one another.
For mounting instructions using the wall mount kits, refer to the WM5000 Series Wall Mount Kit Installation manual.
