Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation

Preparing Your Site for Installation

AC Power

The system is designed for connection to TN power systems. A TN power system is a power distribution system with one point connected directly to earth (ground). The exposed conductive parts of the installation are connected to that point by protective earth conductors.

Ensure that the plug-socket combination is accessible at all times, because it serves as the main disconnecting device.

The IE2100 Series has the following power requirements:

Universal input: 100-127/200-240 VAC

Frequency: 50-60HZ

Maximum power: 65 watts

Warning This product relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Make sure that a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 15A U.S. and 240 VAC, 10A international are used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors).

Warning The device is designed to work with TN power systems.

Cabling

Use the cables in the accessory kit to connect the IE2100 Series console port to a console or computer that is running a console program. In addition to the console cable, you must supply your own standard Ethernet cable to connect the IE2100 Series to your network. This section details the pinout information for these cables, so that you can purchase the correct cable for your network connection, and replace the console cable and adapters if that becomes necessary.

A structured wiring system provides a standardized way to wire a building for all types of networks for the IE2100 Series appliance to be installed. The main distribution frame links all the building’s interior wiring and provides an interface connection to circuits coming from outside sources such as the local telephone company. Wiring hubs (peripherals for cabling installations) provide the connection logic unique to Fast Ethernet cables that the IE2100 Series uses. Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) copper wire is used to connect the IE2100 Series and distributes the network connections to wall jacks near each piece of network equipment.

Warning The ports labeled “10BaseT”, “100BaseTX”, and “10/100” are safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. SELV circuits should only be connected to other SELV circuits. Avoid connecting these circuits to telephone network voltage (TNV) circuits.

Ethernet Standards

To connect the IE2100 Series to your network, you must use one of the following Fast Ethernet cables:

An RJ-45 to RJ-45 straight-through cable to connect the IE2100 Series to a hub

An RJ-45 to RJ-45 crossover cable to connect the IE2100 Series to another device
