Location and Regional Specifications:
Space Requirements:
1. Select a standard 19" equipment rack or, for a standalone installation, a flat, stable surface capable of supporting the size and weight of the CLEER24-10G, its
installable components and cabling.
2. Ensure that you have enough rack space for all equipment. Shelves and rear supporting brackets are not mandatory.
Location Requirements:
Power - The CLEER24-10G switch must be placed within 6 feet of an available power source. Do not use an extension cord to connect the equipment to a power outlet.
Ventilation - To ensure proper ventilation of the CLEER24-10G, leave at least 2 inches of unobstructed space on all sides of the unit. If the fans are blocked, the unit
could overheat.
Downlink – The adapters should be installed a minimum of 6 feet away from the CLEER24-10G switch.
Installation procedures will be trouble
‐
free if you ensure that the following items are available before you begin:
• The CLEER24-10G switch, all cables and accessories you received in the CLEER package.
• SFP/SFP+ transceiver modules for the 10G uplink ports (user-supplied).
• Fiber or UTP cable (user-supplied) for the SFP/SFP+ modules.
• Coax cable for the downlink ports (user-supplied).
• Serial console cable for the CONSOLE port, provided as an accessory in the product package.
• Standard CAT5e copper LAN cable for the MGMT port (optional). Only needed if out-of-band management is required (user
‐
supplied).
• Protective ground cable (user
‐
supplied).
The CLEER24-10G can be installed in any indoor location in all countries except
Finland, Norway and Sweden, where, in these 3 Nordic countries, it must be installed
in a restricted access location.
CLEER24-10G kan installeras på valfri plats inomhus i samtliga länder utom Finland,
Norge och Sverige; i dessa nordiska länder måste den installeras på en plats med
begränsad åtkomst.
CLEER24-10G kan installeres overalt indendørs undtagen i Finland, Norge og Sverige,
hvor i disse tre nordiske lande den skal installeres på et sted med begrænset adgang.
CLEER24-10G kan installeres innendørs i alle land unntatt Finland, Norge og Sverge. I
disse tre nordiske landene må den installeres på et sted med begrenset tilgang.
Hardware Topology & Installation Overview
1. Remove the CLEER24-10G switch and all accompanying accessories.
2. Install the rackmount brackets for rack mounting. Unit fits in standard 19”
racks.
3. Install the protective grounding conductor (please refer to the System
Grounding section of this guide).
4. Remove all legacy devices from the cabling.
Note: It is extremely important that
non-IP devices are not connected when you power on the CLEER24-10G.
5. Connect the infrastructure cable to the BNC connectors on the CLEER24-10G
switch.
6. Connect an uplink port to the network switch.
7. For power share, daisy chain CLEER24-10G switches using DC cables (see below).
8. Power up the CLEER24-10G.
9. For troubleshooting, please refer to the Hardware Installation Guide located at
www.nvtphybridge.com.
10. To revert back to factory defaults, hold the reset button for 50 seconds or until
the fault (!) LED on the power supply stops flashing red. Alternatively, factory reset
can be observed by connecting the console cable; command line of switch will
confirm that factory reset has occurred during the boot process.
