Floor Layout – Aisle Configurations
Several aisle configurations are possible. At least one antenna has to be
wired to the customer Ethernet port (assuming data service). During site
planning the recommend aisle layouts are determined.
Ref
er to the system Quick Start Guide (CKP P/N 10062884) for
additional details on the Supported Aisle Layouts.
Power Supply Requirements – All Regions
System Requirements:
Depending on the Antenna model (RF, RFID or Dual RF/RFID), different power
supplies
are required. For a single aisle, Dual system, two separate supplies (12 VDC
and 24DC, for RFID and RF, respectively) are required. This requires an AC Duplex
outlet. Access to the PSU or having the outlets on a circuit breaker is recommended.
Each RFID Reader requires +12V DC. There are 2 approved power supply models
of varying capacity. The “smaller” PSU is the 5.0A version, and can support 1 Reader.
The other PSU has increased current capactiy (5.5A) for supporting 2 daisy-chained
RFID readers and peripherals/LED. See Part numbers below:
Small - EOS ZVC60NP12E4 - CKP P/N 7284242
Large - XP Power AEB70 - CKP P/N 7421850
Group Planning, Required Floor Cuts
The power supply must be located at least 1.5m [4ft 11in] away from the nearest
antenna and less than 10m [32.8 ft].
Ther
e is not a specific requirement for the Ethernet cable to be routed through the
same conduit or trench as the power cabling. Whatever path the power wires take,
the Ethernet cable usually takes as well. This means that an Ethernet port (network
connection) must be supplied at the location of the power supply housing.
If
possible, choose a concealed location for the PSU (for example, in a locked
closet or under the checkout station.). See below for above-ceiling requirements.
For
network sharing purposes, groups are able to be daisy chained. In this scenario,
the entrance of the store could be connected via CAT 5e cabling to a storeroom.
Ethernet cable could be routed a large distance (from one group / coverage zone to
another area) to provide access to a main uplink or control room.
The c
onduit or channel that arrives at the antenna should enter the front / rear face
of the antenna (rather than from the side). See Figure on pg. 3.
Sw
ept 90 degree angles must be cut. See pg. 1 for conduit and/or floor cut details.
Plenum Installation - Requirements
When installing the PSU in the soffit, there are special requirements if the space is
a plenum. Duct-work and also open areas, but only when used for HVAC ventilation,
are considered plenum spaces.
The G
lobTek PSU can be placed in the plenum but NOT higher than 3m [9ft 10in].
If
mounting in a plenum space, use proper plenum-rated wiring and an enclosure kit.
A licensed electrician must install per section 300.22 of the NEC.
Wa
rning: Any wiring in plenum areas must be plenum rated. Additionally, ensure that
the wire is installed in accordance with applicable
(local/national) electrical codes (for example, NEC 300.2 in the US).
Ther
e must be access to the power supply location.
