2.4 Installing the 8829
The 8829 Media Converter is an easy to install
device and can be installed in the Canoga Perkins
8801 Model Rack Chassis, attached to vertical or
horizontal surfaces, or used in a table top con-
figuration. As with all electronic devices, adequate
air flow should be provided around the unit since
some heat is generated.
2.4.1 Stand Alone Unit
In addition to placing on a desk top, the 8829 Me-
dia Converter can be attached to the side of any
surface (PC, cabinet, desk, etc.). An attachment
kit is shipped with the 8829 Media Converter stand
alone unit for this purpose.
Wherever the unit is mounted, the decision for
the location will include the determination of a
mounting place for a transformer as well. The
transformer is supplied with a 6-foot power cord.
The connector for the transformer is located on
the rear panel of the unit (marked +24VDC). To cable
the 8829 Media Converter for the UTP interface,
attach an 8-pin modular jack-equipped UTP patch
cable to the 10BASE-T connector on the front panel
of the 8829 Media Converter.
