Connecting Ac Power; Power Requirements; Testing The Ac Outlet - Avaya G700 Installation And Upgrades

Connecting AC Power

For North American installations, the AC Power Cord terminates on one end with a NEMA-15P plug
to connect to the AC mains socket-outlet at the wall. For installations in other regions, the plug to be
used must comply with the local regulations and be marked as such, be suitable for the current and
voltage being used and contain an earthing pin for connection to ground at the AC mains socket-
outlet through the cord.
To prevent accidental interruption of power to the G700 Media Gateway, do not connect the G700
Media Gateway to a switch-controlled AC wall socket-outlet. Avaya Inc. highly recommends that the
customer use a UPS for back-up power.
Advise your customer to verify through a licensed electrician that the ground connection at the AC
outlet to be used is attached to an approved ground.

Power Requirements

The G700 Media Gateway uses an auto-ranging 100-240 VAC power supply, 50 to 60 Hz, 5 A
maximum at 100-120 VAC and 2 A maximum at 200-240 VAC. The AC power source is to be single
phase, 3-conductor (Line, Neutral and Ground) with a 15 A circuit breaker for 100-120 VAC or a 10
A circuit breaker for 200-240 VAC.
