Guidelines for DC-Powered Systems
Warning
The plug-socket combination must be accessible at all times, because it serves as the main disconnecting
device. Statement 1019
Warning
This product requires short-circuit (overcurrent) protection, to be provided as part of the building installation.
Install only in accordance with national and local wiring regulations. Statement 1045
Guidelines for DC-Powered Systems
Basic guidelines for DC-powered systems include the following:
• Each chassis power supply should have its own dedicated input power source. The source must comply
• The circuit must be protected by a dedicated two-pole circuit breaker. The circuit breaker should be sized
• The circuit breaker is considered the disconnect device and should be easily accessible.
• The system ground is the power supply and chassis ground.
• Do not connect the DC return wire to the system frame or to the system-grounding equipment.
• Use the grounding lug to attach a wrist strap for ESD protection during servicing.
Guidelines for AC-Powered Systems
Basic guidelines for AC-powered systems include the following:
• Each chassis power supply should have its own dedicated branch circuit.
• The circuit breaker should be sized according to the power supply input rating and local or national code
• The AC power receptacles used to plug in the chassis must be the grounding type. The grounding
Installing a DC Power Supply
The following sections describe how to install a DC power supply in the Cisco NCS 4201:
Note
This equipment is suitable for installation in Network Telecommunications Facilities and locations where the
NEC applies. The equipment is suitable for installation as part of the Common Bonding Network (CBN).
Caution
The grounding architecture of this product is DC-isolated (DC-I) for DC-powered products. DC-powered
products have a nominal operating DC voltage of 48 VDC. Minimal steady state DC operating voltage is 19.2
VDC.
