Connecting To The Router Ports - Cisco IR809 Getting Started And Product Document Of Compliance

Step 3 Measure two strands of twisted-pair copper wire 18-to-20 AWG (1.02 -to- 0.8mm) long enough to connect to the
DC power source.
The maximum length of the cable before twisting is 15 feet (4.6 meters).
Note
Step 4 Using an 18-gauge wire-stripping tool, strip each of the two twisted pair
wires coming from each DC-input power source to 0.25 inch (6.3 mm)
± 0.02 inch (0.5 mm). Do not strip more than 0.27 inch (6.8 mm) of
insulation from the wire. Stripping more than the recommended amount
of wire can leave exposed wire from the power connector after
installation.
Step 5 Remove the two captive screws that attach the power and alarm connector to the router, and remove the connector.
Step 6 On the power and alarm connector, insert the exposed part of the positive
wire into the connection labeled "V" and the exposed part of the return
wire into the connection labeled "RT". Make sure that you cannot see any
wire lead. Only wire with insulation should extend from the connector.
Use the same method for wiring the alarm connections.
Note
Step 7
Use a ratcheting torque flathead screwdriver to torque the power connector captive screws (above the installed wire
leads) to 2 in-lb (0.23 N-m).
Step 8
Connect the other end of the positive wire to the positive terminal on the DC power source, and connect the other
end of the return wire to the return terminal on the DC power source.
Connect the other end of the Alarm wires to your alarm source.

Connecting to the Router Ports

For hazardous location environments, follow these warnings when connecting to the destination ports
(Gigabit Ethernet, and console ports).
Warning If you connect or disconnect the console cable with power applied to the equipment or any device on
the network, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location
installations. Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
Statement 1080
Warning Do not connect or disconnect cables to the ports while power is applied to the equipment or any
device on the network because an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in
hazardous location installations. Be sure that power is removed from the equipment and cannot be
accidentally be turned on, or verify that the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
