Artesyn Embedded Technology RTM-ATCA-F140 Series Benutzungs- Und Sicherheitshinweise Seite 7

Artesyn and our suppliers take significant steps to ensure there are no bent pins on the
backplane or connector damage to the blades/RTMs prior to leaving the factory. Bent pins
caused by improper installation or by inserting blades with damaged connectors could void the
Artesyn warranty for the backplane or blades.
System Damage
Warning: The intra-building port (s) of the equipment or subassembly is suitable for
connection to intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building port (s) of
the equipment or subassembly MUST NOT be metallically connected to interfaces that
connect to the outside plant (OSP) or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-
building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089) and require isolation
from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of primary protectors is not sufficient protection
in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.
The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly must use shielded intra-building
cabling/wiring that is grounded at both ends.
Operation
Product Damage
High humidity and condensation on the product surface causes short circuits.
Do not operate the product outside the specified environmental limits. Make sure the product
is completely dry and there is no moisture on any surface before applying power.
Cabling and Connectors
Product Damage
RJ-45 connectors on the front panel are either twisted-pair Ethernet (TPE) or E1/T1/J1 network
interfaces. Connecting an E1/T1/J1 line to an Ethernet connector may damage your system.
Make sure that TPE connectors near your working area are clearly marked as network

connectors.
Verify that the length of an Ethernet cable connected to a RJ-45 TPE connector does

not exceed 100 meters or approximately 328 feet.
Make sure the TPE connector of the system is connected only to Safety Extra Low

Voltage (SELV) circuits.
If in doubt, ask your system administrator.
