Depending on your configuration, your router uses either AC or DC power supplies. Perform the appropriate
procedures for each power supply in your router.
WARNING:
Connect AC Power to an AC-Powered ACX2200 Series Router
To connect power to the AC-powered router, you need the following tools:
AC power cords
1. Locate the power cords, which should have a plug appropriate for your geographical location. See the
ACX2200 Universal Metro Routers Hardware Guide.
2. Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the other end of the strap to an ESD
grounding point.
3. Insert the appliance coupler end of the power cord into the appliance inlet on the power supply.
4. Insert the power cord plug into an external AC power source receptacle.
NOTE:
Each power supply must be connected to a dedicated AC power feed and a dedicated
customer site circuit breaker. We recommend that you use a dedicated customer site circuit
breaker rated for 2 A (100 VAC) or 1 A (240 VAC), or as required by local code.
You must ground the router before connecting the power cables.
