Grounding the Media Converter

The dual-slot chassis comes equipped with grounding lugs located on the back
panel.  They require a grounding conductor wire terminated with a two-hole,
compression-type, grounding connector.  The grounding wire -- which must be a
copper conductor -- is not included with the chassis and must be provided by the
customer/installer.   

The electrical conducting path from the single-slot chassis must:

Flow via the grounding lugs to the common bonding network (CBN) for
telecom installations, or to an alternative approved grounding system 

(if

required)

for non-telecom installations.

Be of sufficiently low impedance to conduct fault currents likely to be imposed
on the media converter, and 

Enable proper operation of any over-current protection devices.  

The conductor must be fastened to the grounding lugs with the enclosed anti-
rotation star-washers and lug-nut fasteners.  The applied torque required to the
connector lug-nut fasteners is specified by the connector’s manufacturer. 

To properly ground the dual-slot chassis:

1.

Obtain one (1) grounding conductor 

(12 AWG copper wire gauge or larger)

with a two-hole, compression-type, grounding connector.   

2.

Attach the grounding conductor to the converter by placing the two-hole
connector onto the grounding lugs and fasten with the enclosed lock-washers /
lug-nuts at the proper torque 

(per

the manufacturer’s
specification)

.

3.

Attach the opposite end of the
grounding conductor to the
common bonding network (CBN)
for telecom, or to earth ground 

(if

required)

for non-telecom

installations.

Technical Specifications

For use with Transition Networks Model CPSMC0200-2x0 or equivalent.

NOTE:

The CPSMC0200-2x0 dual-slot chassis is Class B compliant ONLY if Class
B-compliant media converters are installed. Installation of a Class A-
compliant media converter reduces the chassis to Class A compliance.

The maximum power delivery capacity for each chassis slot is 12 Watts with an
aggregate chassis maximum of 6 W per slot.  Example:  A 9-Watt media converter
would require the power of both slots.  In this example, the second slot must remain
unused.
