Installing a Brocade MLXe Series-4 router
3.
Crimp #8 AWG power supply wire into the power lugs and reconnect the lugs to the power supply unit, as shown in the
following figure.
For the NEBS-compliant installation of Brocade MLXe Series-4, Brocade MLXe Series-8, and Brocade MLXe Series-16
routers:
CAUTION
For a Brocade AC system, use a ground wire of at least 6 American Wire Gauge (AWG). The ground wire should
have an agency-approved crimped connector (provided with the chassis) attached to one end, with the other end
attached to building ground. The connector must be crimped with the proper tool, allowing it to be connected to
both ground screws on the enclosure.
CAUTION
For a DC system, use a grounding wire of at least 6 American Wire Gauge (AWG). The 6 AWG wire should be
attached to an agency-approved crimp connector crimped with the proper tool. The crimp connector should allow
for securement to both ground screws on the enclosure. For the Ground lug, use UL listed Panduit crimp
connector, P/N LCD6-10A, and two 10-32, PPH, screws to secure crimp connector to chassis. Grounding
position is located on the side of the chassis adjacent ground symbol.
NOTE
To ensure adequate bonding when attaching the ground lug, a minimum of 20 PSI of torque is required to be applied
to the mounting hardware used to attach the ground lug.
