Installation and Setup

The Cajun P333T is ready to work after you carry out the installation instructions given below. All the Cajun P333T ports provide complete connectivity and no configuration is required to make the system work.

Installing Stacking Sub-modules

Caution: The stacking sub-modules contain components sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Do not touch the circuit board unless instructed to do so.

Installing the Stacking Sub-module in the Cajun P330

1Remove the blanking plate from the back of the Cajun P330 switch.

2Insert the stacking sub-module gently into the slot, ensuring that the metal base plate is aligned with the guide rails.

The metal plate of the X330STK (and not the PCB) fits onto the guide rails.

3Press the sub-module in firmly until it is completely inserted into the Cajun P330.

4Gently tighten the two screws on the side panel of the stacking sub-module by turning the screws.

Note: The Cajun P330 switch must not be operated with the back-slot open; the stacking sub-module should be covered with the supplied blanking plate if necessary.

Positioning

Cajun P333T can be mounted alone or in a stack in a standard 19-inch equipment rack in a wiring closet or equipment room. Up to 10 units can be stacked in this way. When deciding where to position the unit, ensure that:

•It is accessible and cables can be connected easily and according to the configuration rule.

•Cabling is away from sources of electrical noise such as radio transmitters, broadcast amplifiers, power lines and fluorescent lighting fixtures.

•Water or moisture cannot enter the case of the unit.

•Air-flow around the unit and through the vents in the back and sides of the case is not restricted.

Note: Use Octaplane cables to interconnect with other switches.
