3. Install the MultiPower Industrial Media Converters

The MultiPower Industrial Media Converters install virtually anywhere as standalone devices in locations with extremely limited space. Installation options include:

•Velcro strips

•DIN rail mounting with DIN Rail clips

•PowerTray/18 for high density applications

3.1 DIN Rail Mounting

The MultiPower Industrial Media Converters ship from the factory with DIN clips, allowing installation on a DIN rail. Depending on the installation, the MultiPower Industrial Media Converters can be mounted parallel or perpendicular to the DIN rail. Use the supplied screws to attach the DIN clips to the MultiPower Industrial Media Converters, and then snap the converter to the DIN rail.

To remove the converter from the DIN rail, use a flat-head screwdriver in the slot to gently pry the converter from the rail.

NOTE

The DIN clips are designed for use on a DIN-35 rail.

3.2 Cascading DC Power

When installing multiple MultiPower Industrial Media Converters on a DIN rail, the end user can connect to one DC input source, and then cascade from one DC block to the next, until reaching the maximum current available.
