Installing the Device 2.5 Connecting Power Connecting Power The RUGGEDCOM RST916P features two input terminals that allow the device to be powered by two independent DC power sources. Each power source must provide 54 VDC nominal output voltage. Note The RUGGEDCOM RST916P is a dual input power supply system. Due to this structure, induced voltages will be observed between the positive and chassis/ground terminals, and between the negative and chassis/ground terminals.
For IEC 61850 compliance, use an IEC 61850 compliant PoE power supply with power cabling no longer than 3 m (118 in). Otherwise, Siemens recommends using the RUGGEDCOM RPS1300 switch-mode AC power supply. For more information about this power supply, refer to https:// support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/109478699.
