Management Connections

The Optimux-XLT1 can be managed via:

• V.24/RS-232 terminal. The connection cable to the V.24/RS-232 interface on

the unit’s rear panel should be terminated with a 25-pin D-type male connector.

The nominal length of the cable for a data rate of 19.2 kbps is 16m (50 ft).

• Ethernet port. The connection cable to the MNG-ETH interface on the unit’s

front and rear panels should be terminated with an RJ-45 connector.

Connect the management cable to the required management port. The options

available are indicated in Table 2-7.

Power Connection

The Optimux-XLT1 chassis ground is connected to the protective ground (middle)

pin of the power connectors, both for the AC and DC versions of the unit.

Intentional disconnection of the protective ground is prohibited since such an

action may expose personnel to electrical shock hazards.

Before switching on or connecting any cable, the protective ground terminal

(see Figure 2-1) must be connected to the protective ground connector of the

power cord. The power plug shall only be inserted in a socket outlet provided

with a protective ground contact. The protective action must not be negated by

use of an extension cord (power cable) without a protective conductor

(grounding).

For AC or DC power connections, refer to Site Requirements & Prerequisites on

page 2-1.
