ITTING THE COMMUNICATION SERVER
CHAPTER 4 INSTALLATION
5. Shut down the communication server (see Shut-down mode) and disconnect it from the power
supply.
CAUTION: Be sure to observe the Safety regulations.
6. Remove the housing cover.
7. Connect the earthing (see Connecting the earthing wire).
8. Suspend the housing of the communication server onto the screws.
9. To secure the communication server screw in the long lower dowel screw (position C).
10. Fit the housing cover.
11. Secure the snap-on tag to the front panel or to a suitable position on the housing cover. The holes
in the housing cover are spaced in such a way that the snap-on tag can be secured both lengthways
and crossways.
12. Reconnect the communication server to the power supply.
Desktop installation
To protect the cable connections the communication server can also be secured using three screws. The
same drilling plan (see Drilling plan for wall mounting
) and the same procedure apply as for wall mounting
(see Wall-mounting procedure
).
CAUTION: To ensure adequate heat dissipation make sure that no objects are placed on top of the commu-
nication server (see also Location requirements
). Minimum distances must also be observed as shown in
Minimum distances for wall mounting (front panel facing to the right)
.
Rack-mounting
The rack-mounting set allows the communication server to be installed horizontally into a 19” rack. Be
sure to observe the following:
• The communication server takes up the space of 1.5 height units inside the 19” rack. (1 Unit corre-
sponds to 44.45 mm).
• The holes in the mounting plates allow two communication servers to be placed directly above each
other with a space requirement of three units. Different holes in the mounting plates are used for
this purpose (see below figure).
• The space on the left and right between the communication server and the panels of the 19” rack is
for heat dissipation and must remain clear.
• With interface cards with more than 8 ports it is advisable to route the cabling via an fan-out-panel
(FOP) (1 height unit).
