DC Power Distribution Unit J58890CF
Connecting DC power and ground
The grounding methods for the DC-powered MCC1 Media Gateway are more complex than that of an
AC-powered MCC1 Media Gateway.
Figure 44, Typical power and ground for a DC power cabinet,
ground layout for a DC power cabinet. The size of the wire required for the -48 VDC and -48 volt return
must ensure the voltage supplied by the battery plant is maintained between -42.5 and -54.2 VDC at all
times for proper operation and to prevent hardware damage. The wire must be sized for a maximum
voltage drop of 0.5 VDC in each leg of the DC distribution.
