Powering Up Your 1001R14 Rack
The power supplies that come with your 1001R14 rack system are
equipped with a power entry connector on the rear card. The power
supplies are Hot-Swappable, so you are not required to remove the
cards from the rack while applying power to the system.
4.1.2 Installing Model 1193RC Series Into the Rack Chassis
The Model 1193RC Series is comprised of a front card and a rear
card. The two cards meet inside the rack chassis and plug into each
other by way of mating 50 pin card edge connectors. Use the following
steps as a guideline for installing each Model 1193RC Series into the
rack chassis:
1.
Slide the rear card into the back of the chassis along the
metal rails provided.
2.
Secure the rear card using the metal screws provided.
3.
Slide the front card into the front of the chassis. It should
meet the rear card when it’s almost all the way into the chas-
sis.
4.
Push the front card
gently into the card-edge receptacle of the
rear card. It should “click” into place.
5.
Secure the front card using the thumb screws.
NOTE:

This section describes the functions of the Model 1001R14 rack
chassis, tells how to install front and rear Model 1193RC Series cards
into the chassis, and how to connect to the G.703/G.704 Network and
to fiber optic cable.
4.1 THE MODEL 1001R14 RACK CHASSIS
The Model 1001R14 Rack Chassis (Figure 6, below) has fourteen
short range modem card slots, plus its own power supply. Measuring
only 3.5” high, the Model 1001R14 is designed to occupy only 2U in a
19” rack. Sturdy front handles allow the Model 1001R14 to be extract-
ed and transported conveniently.
4.1.1 The Rack Power Supply
The power supply included in the Model 1001R14 rack uses the
same mid-plane architecture as the modem cards. The front card of
the power supply slides in from the front, and the rear card slides in
from the rear. They plug into one another in the middle of the rack.
The front card is then secured by thumb screws and the rear card by
conventional metal screws.
