Installation

The MM-8802 is designed to be installed in commercial grade, EIA electron-
ic equipment racks only.  Installing this unit in non-EIA racks or in other
configurations is not recommended.  Failure to install this product in the
proper enclosure may void your warranty.

The MM-8802 is forced-air cooled, and care should be taken not to block the
air intake or exhaust path.  When installed in EIA racks, the MM-8802 can
be installed in adjacent rack spaces without additional venting. However, it
is recommended that common sense be applied to large installations where
multiple units are mounted in a single rack. It is generally accepted that a
ratio of one vent for every two MM-8802s is a good rule of thumb that usual-
ly provides adequate performance. In installations where adverse conditions
exist, and room temperatures are likely to rise, additional vents should be
installed.

The MM-8802 can be installed into any EIA rack with an internal depth
clearance of 24" or more.  This will allow plenty of space for the unit and its
associated wiring harness.  When dressing off wiring harnesses, take care
with CAT 5 cables.  Do not tie-wrap bundles of CAT 5 wire too tightly.
Leave plenty of room for bends, allowing the cable to progress naturally from
the RJ-45 connector.  Creating tightly wrapped CAT 5 wire bundles can
cause loose crimp joints and defective terminations.

To successfully install your new MM-8802, and perform the testing exam-
ples contained in this manual, you will need the following components:

In MediaMatrix, the minimum configuration consists of a single DPU pro-
cessing engine (X-Frame or frame/DSP card combination), and I/O.
Depending on your system, this may consist of several products.  When
using the MM-8802, at least one unit is required to configure the minimum
system.   Of course, most systems will include more DPU products and mul-
tiple MM-8802s, but this is the most basic configuration.  

The use of high quality, network grade CAT 5 cables is required to success-
fully implement the MM-8802 with new MediaMatrix products.  Please
refer to the section on CAT 5 cabling later in this manual.
