Prisma EtherLinX Unit Installation

Instructions

Overview

Introduction

The Prisma®EtherLinX™unit enables service providers to offer differentiated data

networking or virtual private network (VPN) services to multi-tenant building and

business customers. Residing at the customer premises or at the service provider

point of presence (POP), the Prisma EtherLinX unit provides a VLAN-based Layer 2

entry point to the metropolitan area network (MAN) fiber network, trunking,

differentiating and separating customer traffic. Featuring SNMP management,

bandwidth control, quality of service (QoS), traffic prioritization, and multicast

pruning (using IGMP v1, v2), it is an ideal solution for delivering Ethernet-based

services to customers quickly and cost-effectively. The Prisma EtherLinX unit also

features Telnet, and firmware upgrading through serial configuration or Telnet via a

TFTP server.

Purpose

These installation instructions provide product information and instructions for

Terminology

The terms defined below are used in this document. The definitions given are based

on those found in safety standards.

Service Personnel - The term service personnel applies to trained and qualified

individuals who are allowed to install, replace, or service electrical equipment. The

service personnel are expected to use their experience and technical skills to avoid

possible injury to themselves and others due to hazards that exist in service and

restricted access areas.

User and Operator - The terms user and operator apply to persons other than service

personnel.

Ground(ing) and Earth(ing) - The terms ground(ing) and earth(ing) are synonymous.

This document uses ground(ing) for clarity, but it can be interpreted as having the

same meaning as earth(ing).

Electric Shock Hazard

Because of the potential for higher humidity, the presence of moisture, the proximity

to ground potential and the possibility that hazardous voltages may be present on

network connected cables, there is a greater risk of electric shock when working with

electronic equipment in the outdoor environment.

To minimize the likelihood and effect of electric shock, follow the instructions in this

warning and the precautions below.

WARNING!

To reduce risk of electric shock, perform only the instructions that are included

in the operating instructions. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel

only.

•Do not work in rain, fog or snow conditions

•Ensure equipment and cables are dry

•Wear shoes with soles made of insulated material e.g. rubber, vinyl, etc.

•When making electrical connections, work with one hand in your pocket and

avoid accidental contact with grounded surfaces

•Use insulated tools to make electrical connections

•Make all other connections before connecting power to the equipment

Installation

This equipment should be installed by qualified service personnel and should

comply with national and local requirements.

Grounding

This section provides instructions for verifying that the equipment is properly

grounded.

Safety Plugs (USA Only)

This equipment is equipped with either a 3-terminal (grounding-type) safety plug or

a 2-terminal (polarized) safety plug. The wide blade or the third terminal is provided

for safety. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type or polarized safety

plug.

To properly ground this equipment, follow these safety guidelines:

•Grounding-Type Plug - For a 3-terminal plug (one terminal on this plug is a

protective grounding pin), insert the plug into a grounded mains, 3-terminal

outlet.

Note: This plug fits only one way. If this plug cannot be fully inserted into the

outlet, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete 3-terminal outlet.

•Polarized Plug - For a 2-terminal plug (a polarized plug with one wide blade and

one narrow blade), insert the plug into a polarized mains, 2-terminal outlet in

which one socket is wider than the other.

Note: If this plug cannot be fully inserted into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If

the plug still fails to fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete 2-terminal

outlet.

Grounding Terminal

If this equipment is equipped with an external grounding terminal, attach one end of

an 18-gauge wire (or larger) to the grounding terminal; then, attach the other end of

the wire to a ground, such as a grounded equipment rack.

Safety Plugs (European Union)

•Class I Mains Powered Equipment – Provided with a 3-terminal AC inlet and

requires connection to a 3-terminal mains supply outlet via a 3-terminal power

cord for proper connection to the protective ground.

Note: The equipotential bonding terminal provided on some equipment is not

designed to function as a protective ground connection.

•Class II Mains Powered Equipment – Provided with a 2-terminal AC inlet that

may be connected by a 2-terminal power cord to the mains supply outlet. No

connection to the protective ground is required as this class of equipment is

provided with double or reinforced and/or supplementary insulation in addition

to the basic insulation provided in Class I equipment.

Note: Class II equipment, which is subject to EN 50083-1, is provided with a

chassis mounted equipotential bonding terminal. See the section titled

Equipotential Bonding for connection instructions.

Equipotential Bonding

If this equipment is equipped with an external chassis terminal marked with the IEC

60471-5020 chassis icon ( ), the installer should refer to CENELEC standard EN

50083-1 or IEC standard IEC 60728-11 for correct equipotential bonding connection

instructions.
