Preparing for ED-DCX-4S-B installation
The following steps are required to ensure correct installation and
operation.
1. Provide a space that is 9 rack units (9U) high, 61.19 cm (24.09 in.)
deep, and 43.74 cm (17.22 in.) wide. 1U is equal to 4.45 cm (1.75
in.). If you do not use the provided port side exhaust kit, the space
needs to be only 8 rack units (8U) high.
The ED-DCX-4S-B can be installed facing either direction in a
cabinet, if serviceability and cooling requirements are met.
2. Ensure that dedicated electrical branch circuits with the following
characteristics are available:
• 200 – 240 VAC, 50–60 Hz (two branch circuits)
• Two cables for the 200 - 240 VAC service
• Power supply standards (“Power specifications”) are met
• Protected by a circuit breaker in accordance with local
electrical codes
• Supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size adequate to the
electrical rating on the chassis nameplate
• Location close to the chassis and easily accessible
• Grounded outlets installed by a licensed electrician and
compatible with the power cords
Note: To maximize fault tolerance, connect each power cord to a separate
power source.
3. Plan for cable management before installing the chassis
(“Managing cables”).
Cables can be managed in a variety of ways, such as by routing
cables below the chassis, along either the port or the nonport side
of the chassis, through cable channels on the sides of the cabinet,
or by using patch panels.
4. Ensure that the following is available for configuration of the
ED-DCX-4S-B:
– Workstation with an installed terminal emulator, such as
HyperTerminal
– Serial cable (provided)
