This chapter provides cable requirements for your 96/4635/180 IPS system. It also provides information about channel-attaching your IPS printer. To ensure all of your cable requirements are met, it is important to work with your Xerox representative.

Cable lengths

Cable lengths are important considerations in planning your layout, as components can be separated only up to the length of the data interface cables that connect them.

Cables supplied with the printer are of sufficient length to meet the needs of most installations. Some of these cables are specific lengths to conform to engineering and safety standards.

Data cables The printer components can be separated up to the length of the data interface cables that connect them. The printer and controller are connected by a 25-foot / 7.6 meter data cable.

Power cables The 96/4635/180 power cable lengths are as follows:

Warning: Using an inappropriate alternate cable may degrade the

!performance of your equipment and may also be hazardous.

Note: Cable length loss must be factored in if equipment is installed in a raised-floor environment. You should also consider that part of the length of a cable is routed inside the equipment to connect with interior power or data receptacles.
