Chapter 2 - Installing Your CommPlete 4000

This chapter explains how to set up and connect cables for the CommPlete 4000. This product is ready to be connected to the end-user's Ethernet concentrator. It is preconfigured to operate as a communications server. The operator must make modem/terminal-adapter connections, link up the VGA monitor and keyboard, boot the system, and enter some basic information. To connect the cables to the SBC or ISI board, see the Cable Connections section of this chapter.

Unpacking

Check the items on the CommPlete 4000 shipping list to ensure that you have received the correct options and accessories. Unpack the unit and inspect it for visible shipping damage. If damage is observed, do not power-on the unit; contact Multi-Tech's Tech Support for advice. If no damage is observed, place the CommPlete 4000 in its final location.

Safety Warnings

Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.

This product is to be used with UL and cUL listed computers.

Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.

Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electrical shock from lightning.

Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

To reduce the fire risk, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunications line cord.

Rack Mounting

Caution: To prevent personal injury or damage to the unit, two people should mount the CommPlete 4000 into the rack enclosure.

The CommPlete 4000 fits in a standard 19-inch rack enclosure. Attach it securely to the rack enclosure with the four mounting screws included in your CommPlete 4000 kit.

Note: To keep the server cool enough, you need at least one inch of clearance behind the unit to allow air flow. If mounted in a rack enclosure or as a desktop unit, there must be a minimum of one inch between the back of the CommPlete 4000 and any wall or barrier.

Cable Connections

The operator must connect the SBC’s Ehternet connection to the network and the serial interface card(s) to their related external devices or telephony connections. If the ISI5634PCI/8 is used, the supplied special cables with two sizes of modular phone plugs must be used to connect that board’s built-in modems to the phone lines.

If the ISI5634UPCI/8 is used, two RJ-45’s provide the connections to their external devices. The RJ- 45’s fan out to support four modem connections per jack. Two special cables are provided with the RJ-45 connecting to the UPCI board and fanning out to four RJ11 jacks. The cables are labeled 1-4 which connect to the bottom (right) RJ-45 on the UPCI board and the second cable is labeled 5-8 which connect to the top (left) RJ-45.
