The LAN switches

The WAN switches

A  110 - 240V AC power supply electrical outlet

To determine the permanent location:

1. Review

the network diagrams

to see the typical network setups and fogNode placements.

2. Review the LAN switch locations.
3. Review the WAN switch locations.
4. Find a 110 – 240V AC power outlet near the switches.
5. Find a location close to the switches and power outlet to place the fogNode. If there is not a

location that is suitable, create a location plan that will work. For example, if the fogNode’s
power cord is too short to plug into the nearest electrical outlet, add an extension cord to the
outlet that will allow for plug in from the fogNode to the outlet.

6. Measure the dimensions of the fogNode location to ensure the hardware will fit in the space. The

dimensions are 10.5” x 8.6” x 7.7” (26.5cm x 21.7cm x 19.5cm).

7. Add shelving or a small table for the fogNode to sit on, if needed.
8. If the power outlet is more than 6 ft. from the fogNode, add an extension cord to the location.

Cabling

The last pre-deployment planning step is to measure, make, and run Ethernet cabling from the LAN and
WAN to your permanent fogNode location for network communication during fogNode deployment.

To complete the cabling process for one fogNode and one fogLet:

1. Measure the distance from the LAN switch to the fogNode.
2. Measure the distance from the WAN switch to the fogNode.
3. Measure the lengths of cable so they match the measurements you took in Steps 1 and 2.
4. Make each of the Ethernet cables.
5. Run each of the cables from the switches to the fogNode location.

Hardware Deployment Procedure

After completing the

pre-deployment tasks

, KUKA Connect hardware deployment consists of:

1. Receiving the fogNode hardware.
2. Deploying the hardware.

Once these steps are completed, your company’s employees, granted access by an organizational
admin, can view robot data through KUKA Connect. 

Note:

The hardware deployment procedure assumes one fogNode and one fogLet.

Note:

Read through the rest of this information before deploying the hardware.
