CONNECT FUSE PANEL CABLESFigure 2 shows the necessary wiring for the installation of the SpIprobe 3U DC unit to the Fuse Panel. Refer to the Table 3 and Table 4 for additional wiring and lug recommendations.

Figure 2 - FP200 Fuse Panel Wiring

Please note the following when wiring the FP200 fuse panel to the SpIprobe 3U DC models:

For 120 input use at least #2 AWG wire. The customer can wire the input up to the 200 A per side to use the remaining GMT fuses using appropriate input wire gauge.

An input branch circuit protector (fuse or circuit breaker) must be provided and rated to meet local codes and installation requirements. For a 100A input, use a 125A protector or as directed by local codes.

A switch or means to disconnect from the input shall be provided in the building installation which is easily accessible and identified as the disconnect device.

The maximum output loading of the Fuse Panel is 200 A per side (A and B).

Each SpIprobe 3U model requires a -48 VDC power circuit fused at 30 A (or an A and a B circuit for redundancy). Use 30 A TPA fuses. Do not connect more than four 3Us to a single fuse panel in a redundant configuration.

Tektronix equipment, cables, and wiring diagrams comply with industry standard DC electrical color coding. Please ensure proper cabling if your equipment and cabling uses nonstandard DC electrical color coding. Improper cabling can cause damage to equipment or personal injury.

Connect the SpIprobe 3U to the Monitored Network


004-120706

CONNECT THE SPIPROBE 3U TO THE MONITORED NETWORKThe final step in the installation process is connecting the SpIprobe 3U to the monitored network. The monitored network connects to four Link Processor Cards (LP1500) on the rear of the SpIprobe 3U. PCI Mezzanine Cards (PMCs) are daughter boards with external connections for passing interface data to the Link Processor cards (Figure 13). PMCs vary depending on your network requirements. Refer to Monitored Link Support for details. When complete, call Tektronix Service and Delivery to confirm the successful 3U installation (refer to page 2 for contact information).

Figure 13 - SpIprobe 3U AC Unit - Rear View

The SpIprobe 3U supports the PMCs listed in Table 5.

To comply with the Telcordia GR-1089 NEBS standard for electromagnetic compatibility and safety, connect the signal ports only to intra-building or unexposed wiring or cable that is shielded and grounded at both ends. The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly must not be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the 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-CORE, Issue 5) 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.

CHAINING A SPIPROBE 3U AND A SPIPROBE 2U HARPERTOWNTable 3 and Figure 3 show the intercage cabling connections required for chaining a SpIprobe 2U to a SpIprobe 3U when the 3U chassis contains TWO risers of blades. Ensure the NTI Card dipswitches for both chassis are set as shown in Figure 3; the SpIprobe 3U must be configured as the master.

For the 2U, the NTI Card is positioned in the chassis with the dipswitches on the right; for the 3U, it is positioned in the chassis with the dipswitches on the left. Therefore, the ON/OFF configuration of the dipswitches varies between the 2U and 3U chassis. Be careful to set the dipswitches properly for each chassis as shown in the graphics.
