Installing Hubs
This section contains two separate procedures for installing AT-3600
Series slave modules:
❑
Standalone installation.
❑
Installation in a managed hub configuration in a concentrator
chassis.
Installing a standalone hub
The following procedure details how to install an AT-3600 Series hub in a
standalone configuration:
1.
Plug one end of the power cord into the hub’s power receptacle and the
other end into a power outlet.
2.
Check to see that the Power indicator illuminates and performs a
self-test.
3.
Plug your data cables into the hub and the network device.
The Link indicator for each connected port will illuminate.
If one or more of the ports are transferring data, the Receive and
Activity indicators will illuminate.
The AT-3624TS or AT-3624TRS is now ready to serve as a non-managed
hub.
Installing a slave module in a four- or eight-slot managed hub
configuration
Attention
Improper installation of the chassis can expose personnel to high voltages,
risking the possibility of injury or death.
Attention
Improper installation in a chassis may expose the hubs to debris and block
vents, causing damage because of insufficient cooling.
Attention
When installing multiple ATI hubs in a chassis with power, setting the
chassis voltage switch too high (at 240V when 120V is required) will cause
overheating of the fans. Setting the voltage too low (at 120V when 240V is
required) will reduce the effectiveness of the fans and thus cause
overheating of the installed hub modules. Check the specific chassis model
to determine the correct voltage setting.
