2-4 NPort Server Lite User’s Manual

Connecting the Hardware

In the previous section we illustrated the two general operation modes of NPort Server Lite.

We begin this section by describing how to find a proper location for your server, and then

explain how to connect to the network, hook up the power cable, and connect to the

server’s serial port.

Choosing a Location

There are three placement options available. NPort Server Lite can be:

q placed on a desktop,

q fixed to a wall or inside a cabinet, or

q fixed to a 35-mm DIN Rail.

Desktop

One option is to place NPort Server Lite on a clean, flat, well-ventilated desktop. There are

four rubber pads attached to the bottom of the server, and we recommend leaving sufficient

room between NPort Server Lite and neighboring equipment to create enough clearance for

air to circulate.

You should also remember not to put anything on top of NPort Server Lite, since this could

damage the internal components and obscure the server’s LCD panel.

Wall or Cabinet

The two metal brackets included with NPort Server Lite can be used to attach the server to

a wall, or the inside of a cabinet. Using three screws per bracket, first attach the brackets to

the bottom of the server (Fig. 2-2a). Next use two screws per bracket to attach the server to

a wall or cabinet (Fig. 2-2b).
