Installation

Setting up a DD1000i starts with preparing the device for 19" rack mounting and connecting the required cables. By connecting a display and a keyboard to one section of the DD1000i, the console interface, Local admin, can be accessed. In Local admin, IP addresses and certificates must be defined before the device can be managed remotely.

19" rack mounting

Prepare the DD1000i for 19” rack mounting

Step 1Step 2Step 3Step 4Step 5Step 6Step 7Step 8Step 9Step 10Step 11

Fit the two parts of the outer mounting rail together and slide them apart.
Fit the two square knobs on both the front and rear of the outer mounting rail into the square holes on the 19” rack.
Push the parts of the mounting rail together and fix them with two screws.
Repeat steps 1-3 for the second outer mounting rail on the opposite side of the 19” rack.
Slide the outer mounting rails to their extended position.
Fit the angle brackets along the side of the DD1000i into the corresponding holes on the inner mounting rail.
Slide the inner mounting rail towards the front of the DD1000i.
Lock the inner mounting rail into place by tightening the screw at the rear of the rail.
Repeat steps 6-8 for the second inner mounting rail on the opposite side of the DD1000i.
Fit the inner mounting rails on the DD1000i into the outer mounting rails in the 19” rack and slide the DD1000i all the way to the rear.
note
Depending on available space behind the rack, it may be necessary to connect all cables before sliding the DD1000i into position.
Fix the DD1000i into position with a screw on each side.

Connecting cables

note

Using high quality STP network cables to connect the DD1000i to other network devices will exclude potential problems with radiating signals and interference between networking devices.

Connecting the cables

DATA INDATA OUTADMIN - INADMIN - OUTPOWER - INPOWER - OUT

DATA IN port - Connect the port to the sending, source network.
danger
Make sure the source (sending) network is connected to the DATA IN port.

danger
Make sure the destination (receiving) network is connected to the DATA OUT port.
ADMIN port (DATA IN section) - Connect the port to a network or standalone computer for remote administration of the Upstream DD Engine.
danger
ADMIN IN and ADMIN OUT ports should never be connected to the same administration network.
ADMIN port (DATA OUT section) - Connect the port to a network or standalone computer for remote administration of the Downstream DD Engine.
danger
ADMIN IN and ADMIN OUT ports should never be connected to the same administration network.
POWER (DATA IN section) - Connect to a power outlet.

Port lock panels

To make sure unauthorized persons cannot physically connect to the ADMIN, USB or VGA ports, the DD1000i can be equipped with Port lock panels (one for each of the DATA IN and DATA OUT sections, included in the shipment). When mounted and locked with padlocks or seals, the Port lock panels will prevent anyone from connecting cables to the ADMIN, USB or VGA ports.

Device startup

When the DD1000i is powered on, it performs a number of tasks before being ready:

Power on both sections of the DD1000i.
Self tests are performed.
Available configuration is loaded.
The DD1000i is ready to transmit or receive data.
