1. Introduction
The CTS (Connection Technology Systems) Media
Converter Chassis, CVT-RACK-16 is designed to
accommodate sixteen separate and independent
CTS media converters within a rack-mountable rack.
CVT-RACK-16 is fitted with two hot-swappable
power supplies and three hot-swappable fans for
enhanced reliability. This means that if one power
supply fails, the other is capable of taking over
immediately. The other benefit is that if power supply
or fan fails then it can be replaced with another one
without taking back whole CVT-RACK-16.
Power status is shown on the LED display for the
user to monitor and respond as necessary. For
optimal performance, please ensure that CVT-
RACK-16 is placed in a well-ventilated position,
enabling air to circulate above and below the unit.
CVT-RACK-16 can also be installed in a standard
19-inch site rack; provision has been made for the
appropriate connecting brackets.
Note: This Chassis has been designed to house only
the proprietary range of media converters. Any other
configuration is at the user´s own risk.
