Section 4, Network Turnup Procedure

TRACER 5045 System Manual

The supplementary equipment grounding conductor shall not be smaller in size than the ungrounded branch-circuit supply conductors. The supplementary equipment grounding conductor shall be connected to the product at the terminal provided, and shall be connected to ground in a manner that will retain the ground connection when the product is unplugged from the receptacle. The connection to ground of the supplementary equipment grounding conductor shall be in compliance with the rules for terminating bonding jumpers at Part K or Article 250 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. Termination of the supplementary equipment grounding conductor is permitted to be made to building steel, to a metal electrical raceway system, or to any grounded item that is permanently and reliably connected to the electrical service equipment ground.

The supplemental grounding conductor shall be connected to the equipment using a number 8 ring terminal and should be fastened to the grounding lug provided on the rear panel of the equipment. The ring terminal should be installed using the appropriate crimping tool (AMP P/N 59250 T-EAD Crimping Tool or equivalent.)

The supplemental equipment grounding terminal is located on the rear panel of the TRACER 5045.

•This unit shall be installed in accordance with Article 400 and 364.8 of the NEC NFPA 70 when installed outside of a Restricted Access Location (i.e., central office, behind a locked door, service personnel only area).

•Power to the TRACER 5045 DC system must be from a reliably grounded 21-60 VDC source which is electrically isolated from the AC source.

• The branch circuit overcurrent protection shall be a fuse or circuit breaker rated minimum 60 VDC, maximum 10A.

•A readily accessible disconnect device that is suitably approved and rated shall be incorporated in the field wiring.

6.SUPPLYING POWER TO THE UNIT

The TRACER 5045 can operate from a supply between 21 and 60 VDC, with either polarity referenced to ground. Power supplies should be able to provide up to 24 Watts at the selected voltage. A dual pin terminal plug accepts power at the rear panel of the unit, providing a + and - polarity reference point. Adapters for this plug are available (P/N 1175043L2) and are furnished with the unit and optional power supply (P/N 1280650L1).

7.MOUNTING OPTIONS

Install the TRACER 5045 in a location that requires minimal antenna feedline length (the loss in this cable directly affects overall system performance). The TRACER 5045 is designed to be mounted in a rack. If multiple units are installed in one location, one half inch of spacing is recommended above and below the unit.

8.CONNECTING THE ETHERNET INTERFACES

The physical Ethernet interfaces are provided using four RJ-48C jacks. Ethernet cables are not supplied with your shipment. Connect any standard Ethernet device to one of the switch ports located on the rear of the unit.
