mounting brackets installed in one of three mounting positions or shipped loose.
The mounting brackets can be rotated for use in wall mounting. Optional adhesive feet may be
attached to the bottom of the chassis so that it can be placed on a desk or other smooth surface.
Mounting Bracket Orientation (Top View)
After the site requirements have been verified, the chassis may be installed at the specified location.
When mounting the chassis, practice good safety habits. Use two or more people to secure the
chassis. Relay rack mounting normally requires at least two people.
Step Action
1 Locate the chassis and obtain the appropriate chassis mounting hardware.
2 Determine and obtain the tools required for the chassis mounting hardware.
3 From the front of the relay rack, position the chassis in its relay rack mounting location.
4
Using the appropriate rack mounting hardware, secure the chassis in its relay location on
both left and right side of mounting bracket.
Note — The chassis should be empty during the chassis mounting procedures. Remove any unit
in
the chassis, and store them according to static-sensitive device storage procedures.

1.2.4 Power and Ground Connections
Power connection of Proscend 4100
AC Power Connection
If your Proscend 4100 uses AC power, connect the AC power cord to the AC supply socket on the
front panel of the IP DSLAM, and plug the cord into the external power source. The voltage must be
100 to 240 VAC (±10% tolerance).
DC Power Connection
The DC power interface is a 5-pin terminal block with polarity signs on the front panel of the
DSLAM.
The Proscend 4100 can be powered from two –48V DC power supply. The DC power connector is
a 5P terminal block; 2P is for accommodating one DC power input and other 2P is for
accommodating another DC power input. The center pin of the terminal block is FGND. The DC
power should be connected to a well-fused power supply.
After completing chassis installation, please apply power to the fused power distribution panel
feeding the chassis. When using a DC voltmeter, please check for proper voltage: -60V ~ -36V DC,
and make sure that the polarity is correct.
Warning — Ensure that all power sources to the chassis (power distribution panel) are turned off
during the connection.

Proscend 4100 VDSL2 IP DSLAM User Manual V0.01

Note — It is recommended that the -48VDC power be supplied directly and independently by a
power feeding system and also avoid having a parallel or mutual connection with other
-48VDC power supplier of telecom equipment. This is to guarantee our
products against
interferences by other equipment while they are working.
Ground Connections
This section provides the grounding rule for the Proscend 4100. All remote system sites must be
properly grounded for optimum system performance.
In Central Office:
There should be a CO GND that is adequately grounded. If the measured resistance from the
grounding screw (on the front panel of the IP DSLAM) to CO GND is less than 5 Ohm, then it can
be assumed that the system is well grounded. If the measured resistance is larger than 5 Ohm, it is
recommended to connect the grounding screw to CO GND using #14 or #12 AWG wire gauge
conductor.
In Remote Cabinet:
The Proscend 4100 should be grounded by connecting a #14 or #12 AWG conductor between the
grounding screw (on the front panel of the IP DSLAM) and the earth ground or main grounding bar.
The resistance between the chassis and the grounding bar should be less than 25 Ohm.

1.4 Configuration Import/Export
The configuration database of Proscend 4100 contains two kinds of database - inband database and
general database. Inband database contains configuration for the inband channel and is shared by
two boot images (no matter which boot point you choose, the inband configuration keeps the same).
General database contains other configuration.
The Proscend 4100 provides the configuration preservation feature that the configuration database
is stored in flash memory (two partitions available). In addition to the configuration preservation
feature, the Proscend 4100 also provides the configuration export/import feature.
The following paragraph describes how to do the configuration DB export/import in CLI and Web.
In CLI:
(A) Save runtime config. and set to new active DB:
Ex:
enable
configure
runningcfg save [<inbandBackup Name>] [<generalBackup Name>]
/*Backup Name is optional. When inband Backup Name is specified, general Backup Name is
also optional. If omitted, use the same name as <inbandBackupName>*/
(B) Choose another DB / (C) Choose another DB and restart: (total 16 DB for selection)
Ex:
enable
configure
runningcfg restore index <inbandBackupIndex> [<generalBackupIndex>][noreboot]
or
runningcfg restore name <inbandBackupName> [<generalBackupName>][noreboot]
/*You must add the word “noreboot”
for action (B) so that the system will not reboot automatically
once the DB is changed*/
(D) Clear active DB including inband / (E) Clear active DB including inband and restart:
Ex:
enable
configure
runningcfg clear all [noreboot]
/*You must add the word “noreboot” for action (D) so that the system will not reboot automatically
once the DB is cleared*/
(F) Clear active DB excluding inband / (G) Clear active DB excluding inband and restart:
