B) Mount EXB-IP modules (See Appendix B for Mounting Option details):
Desk, Wall, or Rack Mounting
• Non-slip rubber feet are included on all EXB-IP modules to allow them to conveniently rest on any
horizontal surface. Four 6-32 threaded holes are also available on the bottom of the module to
allow bolting of the module in any convenient orientation. WARNING: Care should be taken to
limit protrusion of the screw into the module to no more than 0.125 inch from the module
bottom surface!
• Mounting kits are available as options to allow wall or rack (19” EIA) mounting of the EXB
modules.
C) Make electrical connections (See Appendix C for connector details):
Grounding
• When wall or rack mounting the EXB, a suitable safety and protective earth ground should be
provided to the metal enclosure. The protective earth ground provides a path to ground for
electrostatic discharge (ESD) energy. This connection is most conveniently made directly to the
wall mount bracket or rack plate.
MCN Network Connection
• The local MCN network must be attached to the EXB module via the “NETWORK” connector
following standard guidelines as to cable type, cable length, and termination appropriate for the
selected transceiver. The dual RJ45 NETWORK connector allows a daisy-chained network
connection method, as the network pins of the two
RJ45 connectors are directly paralleled. The EXB-IP
module does not inject DC power on the network cable.
It does not use any DC power from the cable.
The 2 pin removable terminal strip is wired in parallel
with the network connections on the dual RJ45
connector. This connector is normally not used.
