Connecting Power Supply Wires - Pace i3822V Installation Manual

Note: Do not remove the protective gel-filled insulation around the holes; it acts as
a moisture barrier and prevents unwanted small particles from having direct
contact with the wires.
7. Insert approximately 1-1/2 inches of the un-stripped color-coded wire pair of the
VDSL lines from the network provider through the corresponding color-coded
holes of the station protectors, green to tip and red to ring.
Note: You may feel an initial resistance when inserting the wires into the protector.
Do not stop there. If you do, the connectors might close on the insulation, but no
contacts are made. Make sure that the inserted wire ends are straight and have no
curls on them. If the wires are bent upward or curled when inserted, they will not
make proper contact. This may result in the wires passing the pull test even
though there is no connection.
8. Peek through the side of the station protector and make sure that the wires have
pierced the gel-filled insulation and that contacts are made.
9. Hold the two wires in place; use a 3/8" hex or flat blade screwdriver and turn
clockwise to tighten the station protector.
10. Tug gently at the inserted wires to make sure that they are securely seated.
11. Repeat Step 6 through Step 10 for the second VDSL pair.
12. Secure all cables and wires to the strain relief bar at the top of the grommet.
13. Attach the Telco access cover that you removed in step 1 with a 5/32" tamper-
proof hex screwdriver (booth wrench).

Connecting power supply wires

This section provides instructions for connecting the power supply wires to the i3822V.
The power supply connector on the i3822V and the iPSU are colored with the same
polarity: red is positive and black is negative. If the phone cable that you are using
does not have red and black wires, make note of the color coding on the wires
connected to the red and black holes in the i3822V power connector. The same color
wire connected to the red hole in the i3822V power connector must be connected to
the red terminal in the iPSU, and the same color wire connected to the black hole in
the i3822V power connector must be connected to the black terminal in the iPSU.
The cable connecting the iPSU and the i3822V must be a dedicated pair and must not
appear at any phone jacks in the home. Run a new cable between the iPSU and the
i3822V if no dedicated pair is available. The cable must be 24 AWG and can be a
maximum of 100 feet long. The power pair must not have any impairments such as
shorts to ground.
Note: Do not use a wire thinner than 24 AWG; it compromises the maximum wiring
length and the battery backup duration.
