Overview

2
OmniStar GX2 equipment is designed for increased rack density, reliability, ease of
operation, and computer-aided troubleshooting through extensive network management.
All OmniStar GX2 modules are accessible and replaceable from the front of the
GX2-HSG* equipment shelf, resulting in low time-to-repair. An installed module mates
with the equipment shelf connectors for signal interfacing and power. Fiber connections
are made at the front of a module.
The OmniStar GX2 housing incorporates blind-mate connectors that enable all modules
to be hot swapped without removing the RF cables. When modules are replaced with
power applied to the equipment shelf, ensure that all laser hazard warnings provided in
Section 3, "Installation" are strictly enforced.
You can install the GX2-EA1000C*/* in any of the sixteen universal slots in the
equipment shelf. The narrow slot on the far right is reserved for the GX2-CM100B
control module.
Although the GX2-HSG* can have a mix of different OmniStar GX2 modules, Figure 3
illustrates an equipment shelf populated with sixteen GX2-EA1000C*/* modules, a
GX2-CM100B control module, and an optional shelf door unit (SDU) with display.
Table 1 describes a minimum GX2-HSG* equipment shelf configuration required for
operating a GX2-EA1000C*/*:
