Alternate Power Feed Option - "Y" Feed Adapter Cable
5.2.2
Where distances prevent the use of the composite cable due to power feed loss, a special "Y" feed
adaptor cable is available that allows customer provided, heavier duty, wires to be spliced into the power
feed connection. The gland fitting on the DragonWave Lightning Arrestor unit accepts and seals a round
cable with a jacket diameter between 0.35 and 0.62 inches. The power terminal block will accept up to a
maximum of 14 AWG wires. An RJ45 Ethernet port connection is also available on this "Y" adapter cable.
Note that the OOB management connection (where used) and power feed to Port 2 must be fed via a
DragonWave Lightning Arrestor Unit to protect the network and power systems from transients. Either the
Indoor or Outdoor Lightning Arrestor unit may be used depending on the installation.
Figure 5-5 shows this arrangement showing how network and power circuits are protected by using the
DragonWave Outdoor Lightning Arrestor Unit. If the suppression unit is installed indoors, then the
DragonWave Indoor Lightning Arrestor Unit may be substituted using the same connections.
