Chapter 2. Installation
2.1 UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Inspect the shipping container for damage. If the shipping containers are damaged, keep
them until the contents of the shipment have been carefully inspected and checked for
normal operation.
Remove the packing list from the outside of the shipping carton. Open the carton and
remove the contents, checking the contents against the packing list. Verify completeness
of the shipment and that the unit functions correctly. If damage is evident, contact the
carrier and Comtech EF Data immediately and submit a damage report.
If the unit needs to be returned to Comtech EF Data, use the original shipping container.
2.2 RACK MOUNT INSTALLATION
The UT-4500 Series Up Converters are designed for installation in a standard 19-inch
rack cabinet or enclosure. The converter chassis requires 1-3/4 inches of panel height
space. Adequate air ventilation should be provided on both sides of the rack mounted
equipment.
If the converter is to be mounted on slides, the slides must be the Comtech EF Data rack
slides provided with the converter. Mount the slides on the sides of the converter chassis
with the mounting hardware provided. Then, install the slide rails in the rack cabinet
enclosure.
Slide the converter into the front of the rack cabinet until the rear of the front panel
contacts the mounting surface of the cabinet. Secure the converter to the rack cabinet
with four screws inserted through the converter’s front panel slotted holes.
2.3 PRIME POWER CONNECTION
The detachable power cord mates with the AC Prime power receptacle on the rear of the
converter chassis. A power cord for connection to 90 to 125 VAC, or 205 to 240 VAC,
power sources is provided with the converter.
