2.1 Media Converter Slide-in-Modules
Transition Networks Media Converter Slide-in-Modules, installed in slots at the front
of the chassis, allow the network administrator to connect various copper and fiber-
optic network media over protocols that include Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, DS3/E3,
and OC-12 as well as many others (see www.transition.com for a complete listing.)
NOTE: Refer to the documentation that comes with each Media Converter Slide-in-
Module for cable, connector, and LED indicator information specific to that Media
Converter Slide-in-Module.
2.1.1 Calculating the Power Consumption
CAUTION: Before installing the Media Converter Slide-in-Modules, refer to the
power consumption data for each individual Media Converter Slide-in-Module
(provided in the User’s Guide shipped with each Media Converter Slide-in-
Module). The combined power consumption of all devices must not exceed the
available power supply. Failure to observe this caution could result in diminishing
system reliability.
In other words, the combined wattage of the CPSMC0800-100 8-Slot chassis plus
all Slide-In-Modules must be less than the available power.
Contact Transition Networks Tech Support to ensure the power requirements for
your specific application do not exceed the available power.
