4.0INSTALLATION

This section describes the functions of the Model 1001R14 rack chassis, tells how to install front and rear Model 2701RC Series cards into the chassis, and how to connect to the twisted pair interface and the serial interface.

4.1 THE MODEL 1001R14 RACK CHASSIS

The Model 1001R14 Rack Chassis (Figure 9, below) has fourteen or sixteen device card slots, plus a single power supply or dual redundant power supplies. Measuring only 3.5 high, the Model 1001R14 is designed to occupy only 2U in a 19 rack. Sturdy front handles allow the Model 1001R14 to be extracted and transported conveniently.

4.1.1 The Rack Power Supply

The power supply included in the Model 1001R14 rack uses the same mid-plane architecture as the modem cards. The front card of the power supply slides in from the front, and the rear card slides in from the rear. They plug into one another in the middle of the rack.

The front card is then secured by thumb screws and the rear card by conventional metal screws.

WARNING! There are no user-servicable parts in the power supply section of the Model 1001R14 rack. Voltage setting changes and fuse replacement should only be performed by qualified service personnel. Contact Patton Electronics Technical Support at (301)975-1000 for more information.
