CHAPTER 3: Installation
IMPORTANT!
Before attaching any cables or power plugs, make sure that the power
is OFF on all equipment, including the Pow-R-Switch.
3.1 Cabling to the Switch
Cables with DB9 male connectors are required. The cables must be wired
straight through and pinned for an AT
®
style 9-pin serial port.
3.2 Cable Length
RS-232 data cables are typically limited to distances of 50 feet (15.2 m) or less
at 19.2 Kbps. Extended distance cables are available to increase this distance.
Actual installed length will depend on the interface, cable type, and data rate.
3.3 Power Connection
Plug the adapter into the Pow-R-Switch. Plug the AC end into a stable source
of 115-volt, 60-Hz power (or 230-volt, 50-Hz power for SWI035AE and
SWI036AE). Add AC connections to the output ports. Connect the power
input cable to the main AC supply.
