4. Install Components in Rack
Install the matrix in a standard Electronics Industry Association 19-inch
wide (48.26 cm) equipment rack. The matrix requires adequate
ventilation. Leave at least 2 inches (50.8 mm) of clearance on all sides
of the matrix to ensure proper airflow. Do not block ventilation vents.
Check the position of circuit cards, power supplies, and rear-connector
panels. Refer to the appropriate manual in the Eclipse set of manuals
for detailed information on installing a particular frame in the rack.
• For matrices, refer to the Eclipse Omega Matrix Instruction Manual
(part 810290Z), the Eclipse Median Matrix Instruction Manual (part
810347Z), the Eclipse Pico Matrix Instruction Manual (part
810348Z) or the Eclipse-32 Matrix Instruction Manual (part
810315Z) as appropriate for complete installation requirements.
• For interface frames, refer to the appropriate instruction manual for
either the IMF-3, IMF-102, or DIF-102 interface frame (part
810313Z).
5. Install Cables
Install the wiring between the Eclipse matrix and the system
components. Usually the connectors are wired to the cables after the
cables are routed. For further information refer to Chapter 4, “Wiring
System Components.”
Install the DC power cables that connect the power supply or supplies
to the IMF-3 interface frame. Connect the mains AC power cables for
the matrix frame and each panel. For further information refer to
Chapter 3, “Powering System Components.”
6. Connect Cables and Auxiliary Wiring
There are several different types of wiring necessary to connect an
Eclipse system. The following is a summary of the subjects.
Analog Panel Wiring - Connect the intercom panels to the matrix using
shielded CAT5 4-twisted pair cables with RJ-45 connectors. At each
panel there may be other connector wiring necessary depending on
the options and accessories installed.
Digital Panel Wiring - The DIF-102 interface frame holds two DIG-2
interface modules. Each DIG-2 interface module connects two digital
intercom panels to the matrix. Connect the intercom panels to the
DIG-2 interface using double shielded (braid and foil) 24 AWG
conductor CAT-6 enhanced STP cable (CAT-6E) with RJ-45
connectors. At each panel there may be other connector wiring
necessary depending on the options and accessories installed.
Interface Wiring - Connect the interface modules to the matrix using
shielded CAT5 4-twisted pair cables with RJ-45 connectors. Each
interface type requires particular wiring schemes on the DB-9
