COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier

Customer Responsibilities

Preparing the installation site, including securing ac power with proper grounding, and verifying that you have the appropriate components for your site requirements are your responsibility. You can call your AT&T Paradyne representative, however, if you need assistance or have any questions.

When you order your COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier, certain components are supplied with your carrier; other components must be ordered separately.

Supplied with the carrier:

3000 Series Carrier assembly

Fuses

Installation Considerations

Your installation site should be well-ventilated, clean, and free of environmental extremes. There should be 2 to 3 feet of clearance at the front and rear of the cabinet in which the carrier is to be installed to allow access for installation of the power transformer unit, (optional) fan module, and (optional) SDCP, as well as the network interface connectors, rear connector plates, and DTE cables.

HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

FOR

STATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES

AT&T Paradyne products are designed to protect sensitive components from damage due to electrostatic discharge (ESD) during normal operation. When performing installation procedures, however, take proper static control precautions to prevent damage to equipment. If you are not sure of the proper static control precautions, contact the nearest AT&T Paradyne Customer Support office.
