3.0Magnum 8000X Installation

Before installing the equipment, it is necessary to take the following precautions:

1.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack assembly, the environmental temperature around the equipment must be less than or equal to 500C.

2.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack assembly, adequate air flow must be maintained for proper and safe operation.

3.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack system placement of the equipment must not overload or load unevenly the rack system.

4.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack assembly, verify the equipment’s power requirements to prevent overloading of the building/s electrical circuits.

5.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack assembly verify that the equipment has a reliable and uncompromised earthing path.

Installation: This section describes installation of the Magnum Mixed-Media 8000X Hub, as well as connection of the various Ethernet media types.

3.1Locating the Magnum 8000X

The location of the Magnum 8000X is dependent on the physical layout of the network and the area to be served. The unit is typically rack mounted in a wiring closet but because it has rubber feet it can also be installed on a shelf or table top. While stacks of up to 3 units and the associated cabling can be accommodated on a shelf or table top, it is recommended that larger stacks be rack mounted. Each unit is shipped with a pair of metal "ears" that attach to each side of the unit to easily accommodate mounting in standard 19" RETMA racks. (Brackets for 23” telco racks are optional at extra cost).

3.2Connecting Ethernet Media

The Magnum 8000X Mixed-Media Fiber Hub is specifically designed to support all standard Ethernet media types within a single hub unit. This is accomplished by using a family of Port Modules (PMs) which can be individually selected and configured per-port. See Section 2.4 for a description of the PMs.
