3.4 Additional Notes
Weatherproofness
The Mx2wire+ media converter is extremely robust and finished to a very
high quality. Due to the nature of the types of installation described in
this manual, however, it is neither resistant to water jets nor absolutely
dust-proof. Therefore, we strongly recommend using Mx2wire+ only in a
protected indoor area.
In order to ensure that Mx2wire+ also functions properly in harsh and demanding environments
and out of doors, extra provisions must be made to improve the device's sealing (protective
housing, integration of the Mx2wire+ unit in the MOBOTIX wall mount when a MOBOTIX
D12, D24 or Q24 camera is used, for example). Additional heating or ventilation is not
normally required, as Mx2wire+ features a very high operating temperature range of
-30°C to +50 °C (-22 °F to +122 °F).
Caution
Make sure that the holes in the front panel of the Mx2wire+ unit are not covered or
stuck together with silicone or adhesive tape, for example. They provide air circulation
and heat exchange for the integrated circuit board and ensure that the board does
not overheat.
Professional, Safe Installation
Electrical installations should only be carried out by properly trained specialists. MOBOTIX
recommends having Mx2wire+ installed only by specialists accustomed to installing
network devices and having proper respect for the pertinent regulations regarding lightning
protection and fire prevention as well as the current technology for preventing damages
from electrical surges.
Electrical surges can be induced by other electrical appliances, improper wiring, but also
from the outside (e.g., lightning strikes to phone or power lines).
Care And Maintenance
Clean each Mx2wire+ unit using a slightly moistened soft cloth, making sure that no
liquid enters the unit through the holes in the front panel. Never use aggressive cleaning
agents or cleaning agents with abrasive particles (scouring agent). Make sure you instruct
cleaning personnel on how to clean the set.
As Mx2wire+ does not have any mechanical moving parts, regular servicing and maintenance
are not required. MOBOTIX recommends, however, that you occasionally check that the
device is functioning both reliably and properly.
