2.5 INSTALLATION
The following section provides information for installing an 86445-32 FXS unit.
The unit is shipped from the factory configured as per the Node Assignment
Drawing for the purchased system. All spare units or loose units are shipped
with factory default settings in memory.
CAUTION
The 86445-32 2W FXS unit has ESDS components and therefore standard
static protection
precautions should be observed when handling, packing
or shipping the unit.
Pre-installation
Visually check the unit for damage. Ensure that screws are firmly tightened and
in place. Keep the shipping containers and packing materials for future use. If a
unit is damaged, file a claim with the shipping agent or the local GE Multilin
representative.
Shelf Position
The 86445-32 2W FXS unit and associated Paddleboard can be inserted in slots
2 to 14 of an 86430-02 Expansion Shelf or in slots 2 to 11 of an 86430-01
Common Equipment Shelf. Figure 9 shows a typical rack layout for a ring
configured system as it appears on a NAD.
Furthermore, ensure the selected shelf slot is traceable to the proper JVT port.
The user may refer to the 86485 JIF-Share Unit TPIM and 86430 Equipment
Shelf TPIM for more information.
CAUTION
To facilitate the unit's heat dissipation, one of the two adjacent shelf slots
shall be unequipped if:
- both lines are provisioned and longer than 1500 ft, and
- it is expected to have both lines simultaneously off-hook over an
extended period of time, and
- the ambient temperature around the JungleMUX shelf is higher than
40°C.
