Set-up and Installation

This section describes how to set up and install the 9160. Before setting up the 9160, make sure the
serial cable (required to connect the chassis to a VT100 type terminal or PC) is available.

Install the 9160

The 9160 is tested and inspected before shipment from the factory. If there is obvious damage to the
shipping container, contact the carrier immediately.

Caution:

Follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) safety precautions when handling Canoga
Perkins products, as with all electronic devices with static sensitive components.

1. Unpack the 9160. Keep the shipping container until the unit is installed and fully operational. In

the unlikely event that the unit is defective, contact Canoga Perkins Customer Service for a return
authorization number (RMA) and instructions on return shipment. For details, see Appendix A.

2. Mount the 9160 in a rack or as a standalone unit.

• Use the standard rackmount kit with brackets and screws to install the 9160 in a 19-inch rack or

use the optional 23-inch rackmount kit. The 9160 includes two sets of mounting holes.
• For a front chassis mount, align the screw holes in the brackets with the screw holes at the

front of the side panel of the 9160, then secure the screws.

• For a mid- or recessed chassis mount, align the screw holes in the brackets with the screw

holes in the middle of the side panel of the 9160, then secure the screws.

• To use the 9160 as a standalone unit, place it on a secure, flat surface within reach of the power

and fiber optic connections

3. Connect the power. The 9160 can be equipped for either AC or DC power.

• Plug the AC power cord into the socket at the rear of the 9160 and the wall socket.

Caution:

Reversing the connections can damage both the DC source and the 9160.

• Connect power for the -48 VDC power supply at the terminal block; use 18 ga wire for the

+ and - connections and 20 ga wire for the gnd connection.

4. If not already installed, plug the XFP(s) into the 10G 1 port; the slot is keyed. To remove an

XFP, either lift the bail or press the button on the SFP, then gently pull it out.

5. If not already installed, slide an SP or the MP module into the rails and push it firmly into the

backplane, then tighten the captive screw(s).

Cabling for the 9160 includes the serial cable to the Terminal port, the Ethernet cable for a UTP port,
and the fiber optic link to the Tx and Rx ports.

6. Plug the serial cable into the serial port on the front panel and your PC. For the pinout, see

Chapter 5, Specifications.
