This table describes the LEDs for the control panel on the SteelConnect SDI-5030 gateway.

Label Control panel descriptions LED description

1 System ID button with

integrated LED

Maintenance = blue.

Turns the integrated ID LED and the blue server board ID LED on and

off. The ID LED identifies the gateway for maintenance when installed

in a rack of similar appliances. You can also turn on and turn off the

ID LED remotely by using the Intelligent Platform Management

Interface (IPMI) chassis identify command which causes the LED to

blink for 15 seconds.

A duplicate system ID LED is on the back of the gateway to the left of

the video port.

2 NMI button (recessed, tool

required for use)

Puts the gateway in a halt state and issues a nonmaskable interrupt

(NMI). This state helps when performing diagnostics for a given issue

where a memory download is necessary to determine the cause of

the problem. To prevent an inadvertent system halt, the NMI button

is located behind the front control panel faceplate and is only

accessible with the use of a small tipped tool such as a pin or paper

clip.

3 Port 6 activity LED Maps to port 6 on the rear panel.

Link = green.

Activity = blinking green. The blink rate is consistent with the amount

of network activity.

4 System cold reset button

(recess, tool required for use)

Reboots the gateway.

5 System status LED Shows the current health of the server system.

Healthy = green.

Degraded = yellow.

Critical = blinking yellow.

6 Power button with integrated

LED

System on = green.

System off = no light.

Installing the SteelConnect SDI-5030

Gateway

This chapter describes how to install or mount the gateway and discusses the following topics:



“Site preparations or considerations” on page 13



“Required tools and equipment” on page 14



“Rack mounting the SteelConnect SDI-5030” on page 14



“Powering on the gateway” on page 20



“Connecting to the network” on page 21

Site preparations or considerations

Before you install the SteelConnect SDI-5030, make sure that your site meets the requirements

suggested in this section.



“Site requirements” on page 13



“Safety information” on page 13



“Environmental considerations” on page 14

Site requirements



A standard electronic environment where the ambient temperature doesn’t exceed 45

º

C (95

º

F)

and the relative humidity doesn’t exceed 90% (noncondensing).



Ethernet connections are available within the standard Ethernet limit.



A clean power source is available, dedicated to computer devices and other electronic equipment.



The rack is a standard 19-inch Telco-type mounting rack.

Safety information



Carefully inspect the work area in which the0 gateway will be located to ensure against hazards

such as damp floors, ungrounded power extension cords, and missing ground connections.



Before you connect the gateway to power, locate the power off switch on the gateway and locate

the main circuit breaker for the room in which the gateway is installed. If an electrical accident

occurs, turn power off immediately.



Before operating the gateway, ensure that external power sources comply with the requirements.

14 SteelConnect SDI-5030 Gateway Hardware Installation Guide

Installing the SteelConnect SDI-5030 Gateway Required tools and equipment



Ensure that the ampere rating of all equipment plugged into wall outlets does not exceed the

capacity of the outlet.



If you require an extension cord, ensure that the ampere rating of all equipment plugged into the

extension cord does not exceed the cord’s ampere rating.



If the gateway is exposed to moisture or condensation, disconnect it from the power source

immediately and obtain service assistance.



If the gateway exhibits unexpected behavior, such as smoking or becoming extremely hot,

disconnect it from the power source immediately and then obtain service assistance.

Environmental considerations



Ensure that the gateway has at least 12 inches of clearance on all sides to allow for proper

ventilation. The gateway generates heat and requires adequate circulation to maintain proper

operating temperatures. Never cover or obstruct the gateway ventilation slots.



Do not position the gateway near high-powered radio transmitters or electrical equipment, such as

electrical motors or air conditioners. Interference from electrical equipment can cause

intermittent failures.



Do not install the gateway in areas where condensation, water, or other liquids may be present.

These may cause safety hazards and equipment failure.



For clearance to the front and rear panels, make sure that:



front-panel indicators can be easily read.



access to ports is sufficient for unrestricted cabling.



the AC power cord can reach from the AC power outlet to the connector on the rear panel.



access to the rear of the rack is sufficient for connecting the power supply.

Required tools and equipment

You need the following tools and equipment to mount the SteelConnect gateways:



A standard server-type rack



A standard Phillips screwdriver



The rack-mount kit that ships with your gateway

Rack mounting the SteelConnect SDI-5030

The SteelConnect SDI-5030 ships with rack mount hardware.

Important: You will need the MAC address to register the product. Take note of the MAC address on the top cover

label of the chassis before you rack mount the gateway. Once the gateway is rack mounted it is difficult to read the

MAC address.

SteelConnect SDI-5030 Gateway Hardware Installation Guide

Rack mounting the SteelConnect SDI-5030 Installing the SteelConnect SDI-5030 Gateway

The RMK-1-VRAIL kit that ships with the gateway includes a ball retainer lock on the outer member. The

lock provides better lock functionality when the inner member is extended. The rail kit also has an inner

member that is 4 inches (100 mm) longer for easier gateway insertion. You can adjust the rails to

accommodate a 24-inch to 30-inch deep rack. When installed, the maximum rail extension is 16.7

inches (424.4 mm). The rails support a maximum device weight of 130 lb (59 kg).

Note: The rail kit may contain extra pieces of hardware not needed for your gateway installation.

The RMK-1-VRAIL has the components shown in Figure 2-1.

Installing the SteelConnect SDI-5030 Gateway Rack mounting the SteelConnect SDI-5030

To mount the gateway

1. Install the outer rails to the rack posts. Align the brackets to the appropriate vertical position on the

rack and insert the fasteners. Move the ball retainer to the front of the slide rails. (See Figure 2-3.)

Figure 2-3. Installing the rails to the rack

2. Install the inner members to the gateway. Align the inner member key holes to standoffs on the

gateway and move the inner member toward the front of the gateway. (See Figure 2-4.)

3. Install the gateway to the fixed slides. Pull the release button in the inner member to release the

lock and allow the gateway to close. (See Figure 2-5.)

Figure 2-5. Installing the gateway to fixed slides (bezel attached)

To remove the gateway

1. Fully extend the slides until they are in the locked position.

2. Pull the release button to release the lock and disconnect the inner member from the slides. (See

Figure 2-6.)

3. Remove the inner member from the gateway. Press the safety lock to release the inner member. (See

Figure 2-7.)

Figure 2-7. Removing the rail

To mount an gateway in a four-post rack using the RMK-1-PRAIL kit

Note: The RMK-1-PRAIL kit does not require the use of tools; however, there is an option to use a screw on each rail

for added stability.

1. Install the rails to the rack posts. Insert the rail into the rack holes. Use the slide to move the bracket

inside of the rack. Once the rail is in the correct holes, release the extendable part of the rail and the

bracket will snap in place and lock. (See Figure 2-8.)

Note: You can use a screw on each rail for added stability.

5. Lift the release tab and push the gateway into the rack. (See Figure 2-11.)

Figure 2-11. Pushing the gateway into the rack

To remove the gateway

1. Fully extend the rails.

2. Lift the gateway out of the rails and remove the gateway from the rack.

Powering on the gateway

This section describes how to connect the AC power and power on the gateway.

Caution: In European electrical environments you must ground (earth) the Green/Yellow tab on the power cord, or

risk electrical shock.

To power on the gateway

1. If your gateway has a master power switch, ensure that the gateway and master power switches are

in the off position on the rear of the gateway.
