1. Introduction
The 16 Slots Universal Media Converter Chassis is
designed to accommodate sixteen separate and
independent our media converters within a rack-
mountable rack.
The Chassis is fitted with two hot-swappable power
supplies and three hot-swappable fans for enhanced
reliability. This means that if one power supply fails,
the other is capable of taking over immediately. The
other benefit is that if power supply or fan fails then it
can be replaced with another one without taking back
whole Chassis.
Power status is shown on the LED display for the
user to monitor and respond as necessary. For
optimal performance, please ensure that the Chassis
is placed in a well-ventilated position, enabling air to
circulate above and below the unit.
The Chassis can also be installed in a standard 19-
inch site rack; provision has been made for the
appropriate connecting brackets.
Note: This Chassis has been designed to house only
the proprietary range of media converters. Any other
configuration is at the user´s own risk.
