Mechanical Installation Instructions
Figure 1:
Dimensions are for a standard ComNet
™
one slot module.
Rack Module:
The unit is designed to be installed in the ComNet 19-inch (483-mm) EIA standard card-cage rack, the C1-US,
C1-EU, or the C1-CH. Follow these guidelines to install rack cards after performing module setup procedures.
C1-US, C1-EU, or the C1-CH Card Cage Racks
CAUTION:
Although the units are hot-swappable and may be installed without turning power off to the rack,
ComNet recommends that the power supply be turned off and that the rack power supply is disconnected
from any power source.
Note:
Remove electrical connector before installing in card cage rack.
1. Make sure that the card is oriented right side up, and slide it into the card guides in the rack until the
edge connector at the back of the card seats in the corresponding slot in the rack’s connector panel.
Seating may require thumb pressure on the top and bottom of the card’s front panel.
CAUTION: Take care not to press on any of the LEDs.
2. Tighten the two thumb screws on the card until the front panel of the card
is seated against the front of the rack.

Installation Considerations
This fiber-optic link is supplied as
a Standalone/Rack module.
Units should be installed in dry
locations protected from extremes
of temperature and humidity.
Standalone Module:
The unit is provided with a mounting
plate with holes for two No. 6 pan
head screws (3-mm or 3.55-mm).
The type of screws must be suitable
for the surface where a module will
be mounted. (Screws not supplied)
See figure 1.
1. Determine where the module will be
installed, and ensure that there is
adequate space at both ends for
making the various cable
connections and for reading the
diagnostic LEDs.
2. Attach the module to a flat surface
using two mounting screws.
