3 Getting Started with Your Unit
Preparing for Installation
Before installing your unit, you should take the following into
consideration:
³ The chosen location provides adequate clearance for maintenance
procedures.
³ The location is an environmentally-controlled area that meets the
minimum operating parameters.
³ The location is isolated from strong electromagnetic fields produced by
electrical devices.
³ The power cable and power supply are compatible with your power
service.
³ The power source is properly grounded and falls within the internal
power supply rating.
WARNING
³ Your unit is designed to be installed in a limited access area, for
example, Central Offices, Telecommunication Centers, computer
rooms, wiring closet, Outside Plant/CELL-Site class 1, and similar
type locations and in accordance with local codes.
³ Only trained personnel can perform the unit installation and
configuration tasks. These people have appropriate technical
training and experience to be aware of the hazards to which a
person can be exposed when performing these installation
tasks.
IMPORTANT
To ensure compliance with GR-1089-CORE, use only shielded cables
for Ethernet connections to the unit. The shielded cables must be
grounded at both ends.
