Mounting the Device

You can mount the device in a standard 19-inch rack.

1. Attach the two front-mounting brackets (supplied) to both sides of the chassis. Each bracket is secured

to the chassis using 9 screws (supplied).

2. With two people, lift the chassis into the rack from the front of the rack.

3. Hold the chassis for support while the second person positions the chassis so that the front-mounting

brackets are flush against the front-rack posts and that the holes of the front-mounting brackets are

aligned with the holes on the front-rack post.

4. Hold the chassis in position while the second person secures the two front-mounting brackets to the

front posts, by finger-tightening 19-inch rack bolts (not supplied) to the rack posts. Each mounting

bracket is secured to the rack by two bolts. Make sure that the left and right front-mounting brackets

are attached to the rack posts at the same level so that the chassis is supported in a horizontal position.

5. Tighten the bolts on the front-mounting brackets.

Cabling the Device to Power

The device can be powered from a standard alternating current (AC) electrical wall outlet or a DC power

source.

1. GROUNDING: Ground (earth) the device by inserting an electrically earthed strap of 16-AWG

(minimum) wire in to grounding lug (supplied), and then attaching the lug to the chassis using the two

screws and spring washers. For more information, refer to the device's Hardware Manual. Connect the

other end of the strap to protective earthing. This must be in accordance with regulations enforced in

the country of installation.

2. AC POWER: For each AC power model, connect the line socket of the AC power cord (supplied) to the

device's AC power inlet, located on the rear panel. Connect the plug at the other end of the AC power

cord to a standard electrical wall outlet.

6 |Page

3. DC POWER: For each DC power model, disconnect your DC wires from your DC power source, and

then connect the two DC wires (6-AWG) to the DC terminal block plug (supplied), making sure that the

wires are inserted in to the correct openings on the terminal block according to their polarity (negative

or positive). Insert the DC terminal block plug into the DC inlet of the Power Supply module, located on

the rear panel. Connect the DC power leads to a 48-VDC power source.

Assigning an IP Address

Use the device's factory default IP address (192.168.0.2/24 and Default Gateway 0.0.0.0) to initially access the

device's Web-based management interface and then change it to suit your network's addressing scheme for

subsequent connectivity.

1. Using a CAT-5e/6 shielded twisted pair (STP) straight-through RJ-45 Ethernet cable, connect any one of

Ethernet ports of the CPU module (rear panel) to the LAN port of your computer.

2. Change the IP settings of your computer to correspond with the device's default IP address and subnet

mask.

3. On your computer, open a standard Web browser (for example, Google Chrome), and then in the URL

field, enter the device's default IP address; the Web Login screen appears:

4. Type in the default username (Admin) and password (Admin), and then click Login.

5. Open the IP Interfaces table (Setup menu > IP Network tab > Core Entities folder > IP Interfaces).

8 |Page

6. Select the OAMP interface ('Application Type' with OAMP + Media + Control), click Edit, and then in

the dialog box, modify the device's OAMP interface.

7. Click Apply to submit your changes; your connection with the device becomes unavailable at the

default IP address (due to the new IP address).

8. Change the IP settings of your computer to correspond with the new OAMP IP addresses and subnet of

the device.

9. Access the device again, but at its' new IP address, and then on the Web interface's toolbar, click the

Save button; the new IP address is now saved to the device's flash memory.

10. Re-cable the device to the required network. You can now access the device's management interfaces

remotely, using the new IP address.

Safety Precautions

The device must be installed and serviced only by qualified service personnel.

The device is considered as IPX0 non-water ingress protected and therefore, must be installed only

indoors.

Do not expose the device to water or moisture.

Ethernet cabling must be shielded and routed only indoors, and must not exit the building.

Do not open or disassemble this device. The device carries high voltage and contact with internal

components may expose you to electrical shock and bodily harm.

Make sure the device is installed in a well-ventilated location to avoid over heating of internal

components and subsequent damage.

Do not place any object on top of the device and make sure that sufficient clearance from the top and

sides are maintained to ensure proper airflow to avoid over heating of internal components.

Operate the device in an ambient temperature (Tma) that does not exceed 40°C (104°F).

The device must be installed only in restricted access locations that are compliant with ETS 300 253

guidelines where equipotential bonding has been implemented.

The device includes an integrated secondary surge protection, but does not provide primary telecom

protection! When the FXS telephone lines are routed outside the building, additional protection -

usually a 350V three-electrode Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) as described in ITU-T K.44 - must be provided

at the entry point of the telecom wires into the building (usually on the main distribution frame / MDF),

in conjunction with proper grounding. The center pin of the GDT (MDF grounding bar) must be

connected to the equipotential grounding bus bar of the Telecommunication room.

Operate the device only from the type of power source indicated on the chassis.

Installation of the device must be in accordance with national electrical codes and conform to local

regulations.

AC power: Use only the supplied AC power cord for connection to the AC power source.

AC power: The device must be connected to an electrical socket-outlet providing a protective earthing

connection.

AC power: If you are using both Power Supply modules, connect each one to a different AC power

supply source. The two AC power sources must have the same ground potential.

DC power: Connect the device to a safety extra-low voltage (SELV) source that is sufficiently isolated

from the mains.

DC power: Connection of the device to the DC mains power must be done only by a certified electrician

and in accordance with local national electrical regulations.

DC power: Both Power Supply modules must be connected. Ensure that you connect each one to a

different DC power supply source.

DC power: The two DC power sources must have the same ground potential.
