Chapter 3
Setting Up the Repeater
This chapter describes the requirements for setting up the repeater, including
environmental, electrical, and spatial requirements, as well as UTP cabling
considerations. The chapter also explains how to rack mount and power up the
repeater, how to make a basic repeater-to-workstation connection, and how to
set up some basic network configurations.
Selecting a Location
You can place the repeater on a level surface (a desktop or cabinet, for
example) or mount it in a 19-inch rack using a rack mount kit.
Environmental Requirements
For environmental requirements, see Appendix A, “Technical Specifications” in
this guide.
Electrical Requirements
The power source must be a non-switched, three-pronged, grounded outlet.
CAUTION:
Do not use a three-to-two pronged adapter at the outlet. Doing
so may result in electrical shock and/or damage to the repeater.
The electrical requirements for a repeater are as follows:
