• Power • • The G10 CMTS can be configured with either AC or DC power supply modules. To support a • fully-populated CMTS, the installation site must be able to source 1700 watts of input power. • Fully populated, the CMTS is configured with 10 power supplies.
• DC Power • • The G10 CMTS requires a DC power source that operates within a voltage range of –36 to –72 • VDC. Appropriately sized circuit protection measures must be implemented to ensure • compliance with electrical regulatory standards.
• Mounting • • The G10 CMTS is designed for mounting in a 19-inch EIA RS-310-C equipment rack or a • 23-inch AT&T DATAPHONE equipment rack. Installation into non-standard racks may still be • accomplished through the additional rail mounting bracket holes provided with the CMTS.
RF cables and adapters • • Ethernet cables with RJ-45 connectors • • The following equipment is required to configure the G10 CMTS and verify that the RF system • has been setup properly: • • PC with asynchronous terminal emulation •...
