Versa Networks CSG5000 Series Manual

Connect a CSG5000 Series Appliance
This article describes how to connect a Cloud Services Gateway (CSG) 5000 series appliance to an AC power source
and to a management console.
Versa Networks recommends that you use an uninterruptible power strategy that prevents power interruptions. A UPS
can isolate unpredictable power outages or blackouts, brownouts, lightning, power surges, or spikes.
Step 1: Connect Earth Ground to a CSG5000 Series Appliance
1. To ensure proper operation of a CSG5000 series appliance and to meet safety and electrostatic discharge (ESD)
requirements, you must connect the appliance to earth ground before you connect power to the appliance.
2. Ensure that the rack is properly grounded and in compliance with ETSI ETS 300 253. Verify that there is a good
electrical connection to the grounding point on the rack and that the grounding point has no paint or isolating
surface treatment.
3. Attach the grounding wire (#18 AWG) to the grounding point on the device's rear panel.
4. Connect the other end of the wire to rack ground.
Caution: The earth connection must not be removed unless all supply connections are disconnected.
Step 2: Connect AC Power to a CSG5000 Series Appliance
Before you begin connecting AC power to a CSG5000 series appliance, ensure that you have:
• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap.
• An AC power cord is shipped with the appliances only for U.S. customers. Each power supply has a C14 plug that
allows you to plug in standard power cords with C13 termination. The other end of the cord must have appropriate
NEMA 5-15 local plug.
To connect a CSG5000 series appliance to an AC power source:
1. Install two AC power supply units (PSUs) in the device.
2. Connect an external AC power source (C13) to each PSU.
3. Plug the NEMA 5-15 end of the AC power cord into an AC power source outlet.
4. Push the power button to power on the device.
