1. Installation

This chapter describes how to install the appliance hardware and connect it to controlled devices.

1.1 Power Connection

The rack mountable units (OM2200) may be equipped with built-in single- or dual- AC or DC power supplies. The small form-factor units (OM1200) use a single external 12V power adapter.

OM2200 have dual universal AC power supplies with auto failover built in. These power supplies each accept AC input voltage between 100 and 240 VAC with a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz. The OM2224-24E-10G-L draws a maximum of 48W, while non-24E are less than 30W.

Two IEC AC power sockets are located on the power side of the metal case, and these IEC power inlets use conventional IEC AC power cords.

NOTE: Country specific IEC power cords are not included with OM2200s. OM1200s are shipped with a 12VDC to universal AC (multicounty clips) wall adapter.

1.2 Network Connection

All Operations Manager products have two network connections labeled NET1 and NET2. In the OM2200, there are options for copper wiring (on a standard RJ-45 connector) and fiber (through a standard SFP module).

The network connections on the OM2200 are located on the serial port side of the unit. Connect the provided shielded CAT5 cable to the NET1 to a computer or into your network for initial configuration. By default NET1 and NET2 are enabled.

You can use either 10/100/1000BaseT over Cat5 or fiber-optical transceiver (1Gbps) in the SFP slot for NET1 or NET2 on OM2200 (non-10G) and OM1208-8E.

1.3 Serial Connection

The serial connections feature RS-232 with software selectable pin outs (Cisco straight –X2 or Cisco reversed –X1). Connect serial devices with the appropriate STP cables.

1.4 Cellular Connectivity

The Operations Manager products offer an optional global cellular LTE interface (models with -L suffix). The cellular interface is certified for global deployments with most carriers and provides a CAT12 LTE interface supporting most frequencies in use. To activate the cellular interface, you should contact your local cellular carrier and activate a data plan associated to the SIM installed.

For -L models, attach the 4G cellular antennas to the unit’s SMA antenna sockets on the power face (or to the extension RF cables) before powering on. Insert the 2FF SIM card on the power face with the contact facing up. Use the left SIM socket first.

1.5 Reset and Erase

The OPERATIONS MANAGER reboots with all settings (e.g. the assigned network IP address) preserved.

To reboot the unit:

Select CONFIGURE > System > Reboot.

To erase the unit:

Push the Erase button on the port-side panel twice with a bent paper clip while the unit is powered on.

This resets the appliance to its factory default settings. Any modified configuration information is erased. You will be prompted to log in and must enter the default administration username and administration password (Username: root Password: default). You will be required to change this password during the first log in.
