Comnet CNFE2MC User manual

Mechanical Installation Instructions
Figure 1: Dimensions are for a standard ComNet™one slot module.
Rack Module:
The unit is designed to be installed in the ComNet 19-inch (483-mm) EIA standard card-cage rack, the C1-US,
C1-EU, or the C1-CH. Follow these guidelines to install rack cards after performing module setup procedures.
C1-US, C1-EU, or the C1-CH Card Cage Racks
CAUTION: Although the units arehot-swappable and maybe installed without turning power off to the rack,
ComNet recommends that the power supply be turned off and that the rack power supply is disconnected
from any power source. Note: Remove electrical connector before installing in card cage rack.
1. Make sure that the card is oriented right side up, and slide it into the card guides in the rack until the
edge connector at the back of the card seats in the corresponding slot in the rack’s connector panel.
Seating may requirethumb pressureon the top and bottom of the card’s front panel.
CAUTION: Take care not to press on any of the LEDs.
2. Tighten the two thumb screws on the card until the front panel of the card is seated
against the front of the rack.

Installation Considerations
This fiber-optic link is supplied as
aStandalone/Rack module.
Units should be installed in dry
locations protected from extremes
of temperature and humidity.
Standalone Module:
The unit is provided with a mounting
plate with holes for two No. 6 pan
head screws (3-mm or 3.55-mm).
The type of screws must be suitable
for the surface where a module will
bemounted. See figure 1.
1. Determine where the module will be
installed, and ensurethatthereis
adequatespace at both ends for
making the various cable
connections and for reading the
diagnostic LEDs.
2. Attach the module to a flat surface
using two mounting screws.

WARNING: Unit is tobe used with a Listed Class 2 or LPS power supply rated 9-12 VDC @ 1A.
WARNING: This unit should be installed in a restricted access location; available through the use of a lock and key or other
means of security. Access should be limited to service personnel who have been instructed about the reasons for the restrictions
tothe location. Any and all precautions should be taken and controlled by the authority responsible for the location.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS:
A) Elevated Operating Ambient- Ifinstalled in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient.
Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with
the maximum ambienttemperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow -Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

SFP-(x) Installation/Removal
Installation:
Removal:
CAUTION:
-The Fiber Optic sub-module is static sensitive. Use static handling precautions when installing or removing the sub-module.
-Protect your SFP sub-modules by inserting clean dust plugs into the SFP sub-modules after the optical fiber is extracted from
them. Be sure to clean the optic surfaces of the optical fiber before you plug them back into the optical bores of another SFP
sub-module. Avoid getting dust and other contaminants into the optical bores of your SFP sub-modules.The optics will not
work correctly when obstructed by dust.
SFP Module:
-The SFP sub-module installs in the connector cage located on
the unit corresponding to the port assignment to be used.
-The SFP sub-module is keyed and can only be installed
in one orientation.
-The SFP sub-module (see Figure 1) has a bale clasp that you
use to secure the SFP sub-module in a connector cage.
The photos used in the following sequence are intended to aid
in the installation and removal of the SFP sub-module and may
not match your particular model.
Toinsertan SFP sub-module into a connector cage,
perform the following steps:
Step 1 -Flip the bale clasp up before inserting the
SFP module.
Step 2 -Line up the SFP sub-module with the
port and slide it into the port.
(see Figure2)
Step 3 -When you are ready to attach the optical
fiber, remove the rubber plugs from the
sub-module and save for future use.
Note: When installed properly the SFP
sub-module will lock in place.
To removean SFP sub-module from a connector
cage, perform the following steps:
Step 1 - Disconnect the optical fiber from the SFP
sub-module.
Step 2 -Open the bale clasp on the SFP
sub-module bypressing it down with
your indexfinger as shown in Figure 3.
Step 3 -Grasp the SFP sub-module between your
thumb and indexfinger and carefully
remove it from the connector cage as
shown in Figure 4.
Step 4 -Install the rubber plugs back into the SFP
sub-module optical bores, and place the
SFP sub-module in anti-static protective
packaging.
