NFORMATION

 

This section provides information about host chassis/module compatibility and 
creepage/clearance requirements. It also describes the compliance of the 
PathBuilder

 

®

 

 S600 with FCC and CE regulations.

 

Host Chassis/Module 
Compatibility and 
Creepage/Clearance 
Requirements

 

The installer of the E1 CBR and E3 UNI Module must ensure that the host 
chassis and module are compatible and that the host chassis is capable of 
providing adequate power to the module and any other auxiliary host apparatus.

The E1 CBR Module has the following input power requirements:

+5 vdc @ 3.6 Amps

The E3 UNI Module has the following input power requirements:

+5 vdc @ 3.0 Amps

Please contact 3Com for an up-to-date list of compatible host chassis.

In order to maintain the independent approval of this card, it must be installed 
in such a way that with the exception of the connections to the host, when 
other option cards are introduced which use or generate a hazardous voltage, 
the minimum creepages and clearances specified in the table below are 
maintained. A hazardous voltage is one which exceeds 42.2V peak AC or 60V 
DC.

If you have any doubt, seek advice from a component engineer before installing 
other adapters into the best equipment.

 

The larger distance shown in brackets applies where the local environment 
within the host is subject to conductive pollution or dry non-conductive 
pollution which could become conductive due to condensation. Failure to 
maintain these minimum distances would invalidate the approval.
