Chapter 1: Overview
Media Converter Module Slots The two slots on the front panel of the chassis are for the media converter modules, such as the twelve channel AT-MCF2012LC Fast Ethernet Media Converter. Media converters are designed to interconnect networking devices over large distances by transferring network traffic between twisted pair cable and fiber optic cable. For a list of available media converter modules for the AT-MCF2000 chassis, contact your Allied Telesis sale representative or visit our web site. For background information and specific installation instructions for a media converter module, refer to the Installation Guide that ships with the module.
Management Module Slot The management module slot on the back panel is intended for the AT-MCF2000M management module. This module allows you to configure the operating parameters of the media converter modules, such as the speed and duplex mode of the ports, and monitor the status of the modules and channels. The AT-MCF2000M management module is optional. The media converter modules can forward network traffic without the presence of this module in the chassis. However, the management module is necessary if you want to adjust the operating parameter settings of a media converter module from the default settings or monitor the performance of the modules. Note The AT-MCF2000M management module was not available at the time this guide was published. For information on the availability of this product, contact your Allied Telesis sale representative or visit our web site.

AT-MCF2000 Media Converter Chassis Installation Guide
Power Supply Module and Fan Module Slots The AT-MCF2000 chassis has two slots on the back panel for two power supplies or one power supply and one AT-MCF2KFAN fan module. The power requirements of the AT-MCF2000 chassis and the media converter modules can be met with a single power supply. However, a second power supply can be installed in the system to add power redundancy and protect the system from a power supply or power circuit failure. Allied Telesis offers both AC and DC power supply modules for the AT-MCF2000 chassis. The model names are AT-MCF2000AC and AT-MCF2000DC, respectively. If you install two identical power supply modules (i.e., two AC units or two DC units), the two modules share the load of powering the unit during normal operations. If one power supply fails or loses power, the remaining unit provides all power to the system to protect the unit from a system failure. The chassis can also support two different power supply modules, simultaneously (i.e., one AC module and one DC module). In this configuration one module functions as the primary power supply to the chassis and the other functions in a stand-by mode. Should the primary supply fail or lose power, the secondary module changes from stand-by to primary to prevent a system failure. It remains as the primary power supply even if power is restored to the other power supply module, which is placed in the stand-by mode. The changeover from stand-by mode to primary mode of a power supply module is nearly instantaneous to minimize the loss of network packets and an interruption to network service. Note A redundant power supply is strongly recommended for the AT-MCF2000 chassis to avoid a “single point of failure” to your network links.
17
Chapter 1: Overview
If you choose not to install a second power supply in the chassis, you must install the AT-MCF2KFAN fan module so that the chassis can maintain adequate cooling of the media converter modules. Warning The AT-MCF2000 chassis must have two power supply modules or one power supply module and one fan module. Operating the AT-MCF2000 chassis without a second power supply or the AT-MCF2KFAN fan module may result in damage to the media converter modules from overheating. The power supply and fan modules can be hot swapped. They can be removed and replaced with another module while the unit is operating. Note The AT-MCF2000DC power supply module was not available at the time this guide was published. For information on the availability of this product, contact your Allied Telesis sales representative or visit our web site.

Selecting a Site for the AT-MCF2000 Chassis Observe the following guidelines when choosing a site for the AT-MCF2000 media converter chassis: The power outlet should be located near the unit and be easily accessible. The site should provide easy access to the ports on the front of the chassis. This will make it easy for you to connect and disconnect cables, as well as view the unit’s LEDs. To allow proper cooling of the switch, air flow around the unit and through its vents on the side and rear should be unrestricted. Do not place objects on top of the chassis. Do not expose the device to moisture or water. Make sure that the site is a dust-free environment. Use dedicated power circuits or power conditioners to supply reliable electrical power to the network devices. If you plan to install the chassis in an equipment rack, the rack should be safely secured to prevent it from tipping over. Devices in a rack should be installed starting at the bottom, with the heavier devices near the bottom of the rack. If you are installing the chassis on a table, be sure the table is level and secure. Keep the media converter chassis and twisted pair cabling away from sources of electrical noise, such as radios, electric motors, transmitters, broadband amplifiers, power lines, and fluorescent fixtures.

Removing a Module from the Chassis The procedures in this section explain how to remove a module from the chassis. The procedures are: “Removing an AC Power Supply Module,” next “Removing a Fan Module” on page 40 “Removing a Media Converter Module” on page 41
Removing an AC Power Supply Module
To remove the AT-MCF2000AC power supply module, perform the following procedure: 1.
Set the power switch on the AT-MCF2000AC module to OFF.
2.
Disconnect the AC power cord from the power source.
3.
Raise the power cord retaining clip and disconnect the power cord from the power supply module.
4.
Loosen the two captive screws that secure the power supply module to the chassis using a cross-head screwdriver.
5.
Slide the power supply module from the unit. Caution If the chassis is operating with a second power supply, you must replace the power supply module you just removed with another power supply module or the AT-MCF2KFAN fan unit. The chassis must have either two power supply modules or one power supply module and one fan module to maintain adequate airflow and cooling.
Removing a Fan Module

Caution You must replace the fan module with either another fan module or a power supply module. The chassis must have either two power supply modules or one power supply module and one fan module to maintain adequate airflow and cooling.
Removing a Media Converter Module
Before removing a media converter module from the chassis, refer to the module’s Installation Guide to determine whether the module supports hot swapping. If it does not, you must power off the chassis before performing the procedure to avoid damaging the module. Caution A media converter module is sensitive to and can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge precautions when removing a media converter module from the chassis. To remove a media converter module, perform the following procedure: 1.
Disconnect all network cables from the ports on the media converter module.
2.
Reinsert the dust covers on the fiber optic ports.
3.
Loosen the two captive screws that secure the module to the chassis using a cross-head screwdriver.
4.
Slide the module from the chassis.
5.
Install another media converter module in the chassis’ slot or reinstall the AT-MCF2KPNL1 blank panel on the slot. Note Do not leave the slot open. An open slot allows dust to enter the unit and impedes the ability of the chassis to maintain proper airflow and cooling.

Troubleshooting
This chapter offers suggestions on how to troubleshoot the AT-MCF2000 chassis should a problem occur. For instructions on how to troubleshoot a problem with a media converter module or the optional management module, refer to the Installation Guide that ships with the module. Problem: The fans in the power supply module are not operating. Solution: The power supply module is not receiving power or has failed. Alternatively, the fans have failed. Try the following: View the LEDs on the power supply module to determine whether the module is operating properly. The description of the LEDs can be found in the module’s Installation Guide. Verify that the module is fully seated in the power supply/fan slot on the back panel of the chassis. Verify that the power cord is firmly connected to the power supply module and the power source. Verify that the power source is operating properly by plugging a different device into it. Replace the power supply module with another power supply module. Verify that the power from the power source is within the operating specifications of the power supply module. For the operating specifications of the power supply module, refer to the Installation Guide that ships with the module. Problem: The fans in the AT-MCF2KFAN module are not operating. Solution: The fan module is not receiving power or has failed. Try the following: Verify that the module is fully seated in the power supply/fan slot in the chassis. 43
Chapter 3: Troubleshooting
Verify that the power cord to the power supply module in the chassis is firmly connected to the power supply module and the power source. View the LED on the fan module to determine whether the module is operating properly. If the LED indicates the fan module is receiving power but a fan have failed, replace the fan module. The description of the LED can be found in the module’s Installation Guide. Try removing and reinstalling the fan module. Try replacing the fan module with either another fan module or a power supply module. If the replacement module works, the problem is with the original fan module. If the replacement module does not work, the problem is with the chassis. Note If you need further assistance, please contact Allied Telesis Technical Support.
