3. Installation 3.11.1. Module Insertion – SFP Special attention must be paid to the orientation of SFP modules upon installation in the RX1512 chassis. The figure below shows the proper orientation of SFP modules installed in both upper and lower line modules. SFP modules on the upper row must be inserted top-side up. SFP modules on the lower row must be inserted top-side down. SFP modules should be inserted with the baillatch in the locked position. Figure 3.18. SFP module orientation Figure 3.19.
3. Installation Figure 3.20. SFP module removal 3.12. Fiber Ethernet Ports Depending on the order code of the product, the RuggedBackbone™ RX1512 can be equipped with several different types of fiber optic ports. The Transmit (TX) and Receive (RX) connections of each port must be properly connected and matched for proper link establishment and operation.
3. Installation 3.13. Cellular Modems The RX1512 can be equipped with cellular modem modules for operation on GSM, EDGE, HSPA +, or CDMA networks. The cellular modems feature 50 Ω SMA antenna connectors on the front plate of each module. The following cellular modem modules are available: Module Order Code Description W11 1 Port Cell Modem GSM,EDGE,HSPA+ W12 2 Port Cell Modem GSM,EDGE,HSPA+ W21 1 Port Cell Modem EVDO Rev.A Verizon Wireless W22 2 Port Cell Modem EVDO Rev.
3. Installation 3.13.1. GSM, EDGE, HSPA+ Cellular Modem Card The HSPA option is available for use on various GSM based networks. This option supports GSM, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS and WCDMA/HSDPA/HSUPA. The Main antenna and Receive Diversity antenna connections are made to the 50 Ω SMA connectors located on either side of the front faceplate. Supported frequency bands are given in the following table. For safe operation of the device, ensure that the maximum antenna gain is not exceeded.
3. Installation 3. Note the location of the SIM card cages. For modules W11 and W32, install the SIM card in SIM 1. For module W22, install a SIM card in both SIM 1 and SIM 2. 4. Top open a SIM card cage, slide the silver catch down towards the antenna connector end of the module and flip the cage open. 5. Hold the SIM card at its notched end, with its connectors facing down, and insert the SIM card into the cage. 6.
3. Installation 3.14. APE: Application Processing Engine 3.14.1. APE Overview The APE (Application Processing Engine) is an x86-based computer designed to occupy a single line module slot on the RX1512. The APE can host any x86-based operating system capable of running on a computer with similar specifications, and features a Gigabit Ethernet connection on the module faceplate. You can use the APE for a variety of functions, such as network monitoring, specialized applications, DNS applications, and more.
3. Installation 3.14.3. Secondary Network Interface In addition to the gigabit Ethernet interface on the faceplate, the APE features a gigabit Ethernet interface connecting to a port on the RX1512 chassis. The interface can be used by the operating system running on the APE as a normal network interface. The port can be configured from ROX™. Typical port parameters, such as speed, duplex, vlans, and more, can be configured.
3. Installation 3.14.4. Installing an Operating System We recommend that the operating system be installed and configured by users with experience in installing and administering the chosen operating system. To install an operating system on the APE, you need the following items: • DVI-D monitor. • Keyboard with USB connector. • Bootable USB flash drive or USB external CD/DVD drive with your operating system installation package.
3. Installation 3.14.5. The APE BIOS The APE module features a BIOS with functionality similar to that of a typical PC. You can configure the following BIOS settings: • System Time • Processor Options • Boot Options • Security Options For most purposes, these options are used sparingly unless there is a specific hardware or software requirement that requires a change. The most commonly changed options are the boot options, as the USB ports need to be made bootable to install an operating system.
3. Installation 3.14.8. FAQs Q: How do I use a CD or DVD to install an operating system on the APE module? A: Connect an external CD/DVD drive to one of the APE USB ports. If the external drive is powered through the USB port, ensure that it does not exceed the USB port power limitations (250 mA at 5 V), or use a drive that has an external power supply. Q: How do I install Windows from a USB flash drive? A: There are many articles on the Internet explaining how to do this.
