The Calix E7-20 requires -48 VDC input power, which is then split into three power zones.
Each power zone has redundant A and B power terminations available and is connected to a
separate 30-Amp circuit breaker, for a total of six circuit breakers when both A and B feeds
The Calix Circuit Breaker Panel (Calix Part No. 100-00573) provides protected distribution
of power. It consists of two separate circuits, A and B, each of which provides monitored
protection for three redundant power feeds to a single E7-20 shelf. A 30-Amp fuse per
circuit breaker is recommended. An alarm feature allows the Circuit Breaker Panel to provide
a warning if a circuit breaker trips. See the Calix Circuit Breaker Panel datasheet for
The power zones are divided, as follows:

Note: The E7-20 must be installed in an Isolated DC return (DC-I) configuration, where the
DC return is not connected to the grounding system.
