Figure 2-4. Din Rail Mounting Brackets—Orientation of Metal Plates
This allows the metal plate (now with the DIN Rail bracket attached) to be screwed to the
bottom of the server in such a way that it does not stick out over the edge of the server. Use
three screws to attach the metal plate to the bottom of NPort Server Lite, with the
orientation as shown in Fig. 2-4.
Network Connection
There are two ways to use the 10/100BaseT Ethernet jack located on NPort Server Lite’s
front panel (see Fig. 1-2):
1. For many of the applications using NPort Server Lite, you will simply plug one end of
your Ethernet cable into the 10/100BaseT jack, and the other end into the hub
connected to your network.
2. In some cases, such as when configuring drivers and software, you will find it
convenient to hook NPort Server Lite directly to your computer’s Ethernet card. To do
this you will need to use a “crossed-cable”, such as the one supplied with your server.
Power Connection
You should take the following steps to connect NPort Server Lite’s power adaptor.
1. Connect the power adpator’s DC plug into NPort Server Lite’s “DC-IN” jack.
2. Connect the power adaptor to an electrical outlet.
