Read the installation instructions before connecting the system to the power source. Statement 10
Warning
Products that have an AC power connection are required to have an external surge protective device (SPD)
provided as part of the building installation to comply with the Telcordia GR-1089 NEBS standard for
electromagnetic compatibility and safety.
Note
Do not use interface module and power supply ejector handles to lift the chassis; using the handles to lift the
chassis can deform or damage the handles.

Power Connection Guidelines
This section provides guidelines for connecting the router’s power supplies to the site power source.

conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that
suitable grounding is available. Statement 213

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
with the safety extra-low voltage (SELV) requirements in the UL 60950, CSA 60950, EN 60950, and
IEC 60950 standards.
• The circuit must be protected by a dedicated two-pole circuit breaker. The circuit breaker should be sized
according to the power supply input rating and local or national code requirements.
• 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.
