The Teldat iM8 router has an expansion slot. This means you can increase its features and interfaces by inserting

different cards or boards.

This slot is located on the router's front panel, as shown in the following figure:

Fig. 6: Expansion slot

To correctly insert cards, please follow these steps:

(1) Switch off the device and remove the data cables as described under Disconnecting on page 13.

(2) Remove the device from the workplace and place it in a stable, safe location where it can be easily accessed

and handled.

(3) Unscrew the front panel screws to remove the expansion card tray.

(7) Connect the equipment as indicated in section 3.5.1.1 "Connecting". Connect a terminal to the console and veri-

fy that the expansion card has been detected.

3.3 Installation in a rack

The Teldat iM8 device can be installed in a 19” rack. The necessary strips and screws are not provided by default

and have to be acquired separately.

(1) First, remove the side tabs to free the screws holes:

10 Teldat Router iM8

Fig. 14: Rack anchor bolts

3.3.1 Standalone

Teldat iM8 devices can be placed as standalones on a flat, stable surface. The adhesive rubber feet must be stuck

to the underside panel to prevent the router from sliding.

Make sure there is enough space around the router (for ventilation purposes) and check that the power cord and

data cables can reach it.

3.3.2 Wall mounting

The Teldat iM8 cannot be mounted on the wall.

3.4 Plug-in Modules

Presently, only a 3G USB modem can be inserted in the device. To view the list of supported 3G modems, please

visit the following website: http://www.teldat.com.

3.4.1 Installation

Simply insert the USB in the appropriate slot on the rear panel, as shown in the following figure:

Fig. 15: USB modem insertion slot

Teldat S.A. 3 Components and Power Supply

Teldat Router iM8 11

3.4.2 Uninstall

To remove the device, simply pull it out from the slot where it was inserted. We recommend switching off the equip-

ment before removing the USB device.

3.5 Power Source

The Teldat iM8 router is powered through an external AC/DC power adapter.

The Teldat iM8 may also incorporate a card to inject PoE through the 4 ports of the 8-port Switch. In this case, an-

other external adapter is needed to provide power to PoE module.

Note

This adapter is different from the one used to power the Teldat iM8 router and has a different connect-

or.

Warning

The equipment must be used with the power supply provided by the manufacturer.

Workplace conditions. Main characteristics

• Avoid humid and/or dusty locations.

• Direct exposure to sunlight and other heat sources should be avoided. The device should not be placed amongst

papers, magazines or other elements that could hinder natural air circulation.

• The device should not be placed very close to strong electromagnetic fields (such as speakers, engines, etc.).

• Knocks and/or strong vibrations should be avoided during transport, operation and storage.

Warning

The electric current in power cables, telephone lines and communication cables is dangerous. To pre-

vent electric shocks, before installing, handling or opening the equipment covers, connect and discon-

nect the cables following the steps set forth in Connecting on page 13 andDisconnecting on page 13.

3.5.1 External Power Source

To connect the power supply to the device, please follow the steps set out in Connecting on page 13.

To avoid electric shocks, residual current circulation and other unwanted effects that affect communications, the fol-

lowing is recommended:

Warning

All interconnected communication devices should be plugged to THE SAME GROUNDED POWER

OUTLET, which should at the same time be of good quality (lower than 10 ohms).

Whether the workplace is provided with an uninterrupted power supply system (UPS), regulated supply

or it is independent from the rest (such as lighting, etc.); it is highly recommended that all data devices

should be connected to the same power source. This will avoid operating and premature aging prob-

lems of drivers and other components.

3 Components and Power Supply Teldat S.A.

12 Teldat Router iM8

3.5.1.1 Connecting

• Ensure that the on/off power supply switch is in the OFF position (0).

• Make sure the power supply is NOT connected to the electricity or the device.

• Connect all data cables.

• Connect the external adapter power cable to the device.

• Connect the adapter power cable to the main supply (wall socket).

• Set the device's on/off power supply switch in the ON position (1).

3.5.1.2 Disconnecting

• Set the on/off power supply switch in the OFF position (0).

• Disconnect the adapter power cable to the main supply (wall socket).

• Remove the power supply cable from the device.

• Disconnect the data cables.

3.5.2 PoE Source

The Teldat iM8 can be powered through an Ethernet cable that complies with the PoE 802.3af standard (15.4 W per

port). Another external adapter and internal card are needed for this functionality.

The following figure shows where to connect the PoE source to the device:

Fig. 16: PoE source connection and PoE ports

Warning

The equipment must be used with the power supply provided by the manufacturer.

3.5.2.1 Installing the MiniPoE card

To correctly insert the card, please follow these steps:

(1) Switch off the device and remove the data cables, as described in Disconnecting on page 13.

(2) Remove the device from the workplace and place it in a stable, safe location where it can be easily accessed

and handled.

(3) Remove the two screws from the rear panel in order to be able to dismantle the cover that gives access to the

MiniPoE card.

Teldat S.A. 3 Components and Power Supply

Teldat Router iM8 13

Fig. 17: Removing the screws from rear panel

(4) Once the screws have been removed, slide the flap and lift it to remove it. Place it in a safe location.

(5) Find the place where the MiniPoE card needs to be located.

Fig. 18: MiniPoE card: Location

(6) Place the MiniPoE card so that it matches the three connectors. This operation must be carried out carefully,

without forcing any piece or part of the device. Check that the card is firmly placed over the connectors.

(7) Put the top panel flap back and screw it into place using the screws.

Fig. 19: Rearranging the top panel’s flap screws

(8) Connect and switch on the device, as described in Connecting on page 13. Should you detect any problems,

switch off the device and make sure that the above steps have been carried out correctly. If the problem per-

sists, please contact your usual supplier.

(9) Connect a terminal to the console and check that the device detects the MiniPoE card.
