Chapter 2:
Installation & Connections
Overview
This chapter describes installation procedures for the SC-SDT Synchronous Data Transport device
as well as making power connections, performing pre-operational checks, and making system
connections. If this is your first installation of the SC-SDT, be sure to read the previous sections of
this manual to understand the optimal functioning of the SC-SDT product as it applies to your
network.
Shelf / Enclosure Installation Guidelines
•
Locate the SpectraComm shelf in a ventilated area where the ambient temperature does not
exceed environmental specifications (
).
•
Do not install the shelf directly above equipment such as power supplies, which generate large
amounts of heat.
•
When SC-SDT devices are to be installed in the SC 2000 shelf, do not wall-mount the shelf
vertically as no strain relief is available to the front panel connector assemblies in this position.
SpectraComm SDT Installation Guidelines
•
In high density applications the SC-SDT device can be installed in a single slot of the 16-slot
SpectraComm/UAS shelf. In low density applications, the device can be installed in the two-
slot SpectraComm (SC2000) shelf or the single-slot SpectraComm AC or DC standalone
enclosure.
•
Perform the setups, connections, and pre-operation checks in their entirety, as described in this
chapter.
Note
For more information on any SpectraComm shelf or enclosure, refer to associated manuals listed on the
inside front cover of this document and provided on the GDC Publications CD.
