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).
Attach the module to a solid piece of
wood using two No. 6 pan head wood
screws with a minimum penetration
into the wood of 3/4 inch. (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.
