2.2.1. Site Preparation
NOTE
If the IRD is to be installed in a standard 19" rack, verify that the rack is fully prepared for the installation. To
facilitate easy access during installation and maintenance, leave sufficient space behind the rack.
The IRD must be installed within 1.5m (5 feet) from an easily accessible
grounded AC outlet, capable of furnishing the required supply voltage as
detailed below (see Paragraph 2.4.1).
The use of a UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) and an AVR (Automated Voltage
Regulation) is highly recommended to ensure uninterrupted operation of the
IRD.
Ensure that a qualified electrician has installed the mains power supply in
accordance with local power authority regulations. All powering should be wired
with an earth leakage in accordance with local regulations.
CAUTION
E NSURE THAT THE RACK HAS BEEN CORRECTLY GROUNDED BEFORE SWITCHING ON THE IRD-2900 DEVICE . W HEN REMOVING THE
UNIT , REMOVE THE GROUNDED CONNECTION ONLY AFTER THE UNIT IS SWITCHED OFF AND UNPLUGGED .
2.2.2. Mechanical Installation

on the sides of the IRD Chassis.
To prepare the IRD for rack installation:
1. Fasten the brackets to the side rails of the rack with four screws (not
included in the kit), two per side.
Several IRD devices can be installed in a standard 19" rack, one above the
other.
