Installing the WDM Host Module Mounting Shelf and WDM Host Module

FlexWave Prism Host, Remote and EMS 5.1 System Reference Page 91

11 The WDM Host module mounting shelf is shipped with the mounting brackets

installed for 23-inch rack installations. If installing the mounting shelf in a 23-inch

rack, proceed to Step 4. If installing the mounting shelf in a 19-inch rack proceed

to Step 2.

22 Remove both mounting brackets from the mounting shelf (requires Phillips

screwdriver) and save screws for reuse.

33 Reinstall both mounting brackets so the short side of the bracket is flush with the

front panel as shown below. Use the screws removed in Step 2 to attach the new

brackets to the mounting shelf.

44 Position the mounting shelf in the designated mounting space in the rack (per

system design plan) and then secure the mounting brackets to the rack using the

four #12-24 machine screws provided.

55 Install each WDM Host module in the mounting shelf. A rail on the side of the

module fits into a guide within the mounting.

66 Secure each Host module to the mounting shelf by twisting the handle on each

quarter-turn fastener 90º.

77 Carefully store the fiber patch cord leads from each Host module. At the Remote

end, the ProAx fiber used in WDM deployments is Fiber Number 1. The routing

and connection procedures for the fiber patch cords are provided in “Optical

Connections For Systems With a WDM” on page 76. Or, after connecting the fiber

patch cord, correctly store the slack cable.
