Powering on the LN2600 Router on page 45
The LN2600 router derives its power from a single -48 VDC power supply with dual power
inputs.
CAUTION:
The LN2600 router has more than one power source. Ensure
proper care while connecting the DC power supply to the router.
You connect DC power to the router by attaching power cables from the external DC
power sources to the terminal on the power supply ports. The power cables are not
provided with the router.
To connect the DC source power cables to the router for each power supply:
Power off the dedicated customer site circuit breakers. Ensure that the voltage across
1.
the DC power source cable leads is 0 V and that there is no chance that the cable
leads might become active during installation.
Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect
2.
the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis.
Verify that the DC power cables are correctly labeled before making connections to
3.
the power supply. In a typical power distribution scheme where the return is connected
to chassis ground at the battery plant, you can use a multimeter to verify the resistance
of the
48V
and
RTN
cables to chassis ground:
The cable with very large resistance (indicating an open circuit) to chassis ground
is
.
–48V
The cable with very low resistance (indicating a closed circuit) to chassis ground is
RTN
.
Loosen the screws from the power terminals using a 2.5 mm slotted screw driver.
