7.1.1
Install the Ethernet Switch
For multiple repeaters, or for fibre optic links to the
repeaters, an Ethernet switch must be installed.
1 Mount the Ethernet switch using the screws pro-
vided. Refer to item 1 in Fig.
2 Optionally connect an earth cable between the
earthing screw and an earth bar on the housing wall.
3 Connect an Ethernet cable to the switch. Connect
the other end of the Ethernet cable to the connector
marked ‘XP15 ETH’ on the FC-FI main board PCB.
This is at the left hand edge of the board, about half
way down.
4 Connect cables to the 24 V connectors of the Ether-
net switch. Connect the other ends of the power
cables to the connector marked ‘XT6
PWR’
or
‘XT7
PWR’ on the FC-FI main board PCB. Alterna-
tively connect these to one of the FB800 fuse board
24 V outputs, if fitted.
