Installation
Installation of the 2042EDA module set is a process of:
■ Placing the passive rear module in a frame slot,
■ Placing the media module in the corresponding front slot, and
■ Cabling and terminating signal ports.
The 2042EDA module can be plugged in and removed from a 2000 Series
frame with power on. When power is applied to the module, LED indica-
tors reflect the initialization process (see
Power Up on page 6 ).
Module Placement in the 2000 Frame
There are twelve slot locations in both the front and rear of a 3RU frame to
accommodate 2000 Series modules. The 2042EDA consists of a two module
set with a front media module and a passive rear module that can be
plugged into any of the 12 frame slots. Each 2042EDA front media module
plugs into the front of the 2000 frame mid-plane. The passive rear module
plugs into the corresponding rear slot to provide the input and output
interface connectors.
To install a 2042EDA module set in the frame:
1. Locate a vacant slot in the rear of the 3 RU frame ( Figure 1 ).
