5.3. Connections and Cabling
Please connect the cables to the DataBand EV in the order below.
TDM Connections
DataBand EV may be fitted with a RJ45 presentation TDM port. Make the connection between the TDM access points or devices and
the TDM ports on the DataBand EV rear panel.
Serial Port
DataBand EV is also fitted with a V.35 or X.21 Serial Port. Make the connections between the DataBand EV and DTE device.
NOTE: Only shielded, approved cables should be used for these connections.
DbMgr Terminal Port
There are two methods of management access to Patapsco devices. The terminal port allows the unit to be managed via a PC COM
port. Connect the terminal cable between the terminal port on DataBand EV and a spare PC COM port.
LAN Port Connections
DataBand EV has a LAN port for management connections via a company network. The port should be connected to a
router, hub or ethernet switch using a straight-through CAT5e cable.
Power Cables
Connect the Mains lead directly to the mains power socket. The cord must be HAR marked and fitted with an IEC320 connector and
an ASTA approved moulded plug. If the unit is fitted with a DC power supply, use the screw terminals to connect the DC source. The
source should be a negative DC feed, so the 0V (positive) lead should connect to the 0V terminal on DataBand EV, while the -48V
(negative) lead connects to the -48VDC terminal.
Power cords are not supplied with Patapsco equipment. Please contact Patapsco if power cords are required.
Please
Patapsco with any additional cable requirements.
Please note: Only DataBand EV's dual Power Supply Units are hot-swappable (can be removed and
reconnected while the unit is powered on). All other cards should not be removed until the unit is powered off.
Please seek guidance from Patapsco before removing cards from DataBand EV.
